Front view distoring

I'm re-doing my characters and making test renders for my voice actors, and I had a very successful test with the first one, but this 2nd one, the head just keeps distorting in front view and I can't figure out why Prince.zip - Google Drive

Here's the more successful one rendered out KingTest.mp4 - Google Drive

    Prince.puppet - Google Drive


    Two things:

    1. Set up your independence like the image below. You need a crown in front of Prince and each Head view.

    2. All the non-frontal views don't have blink layers, so they collapse on themselves with your eyelids. They either need blink layers in each eye group or Face > Eyelid Strength needs to be 0%.

    I can't find the issue in the project you posted, not sure what to look at. A video or .puppet file would be helpful.

    Usually head distortion is from not having blink layers, improper use of independence, wrong attach style, or a rogue tag keeping it fixed in place.

    Hi SugarTallerino,

    Thanks for posting in Adobe Forums. Could you please share us a video recording of the distortion in front view to understand the issue better.

    Thanks,

    Vidya.

      What happened when you opened this Prince.zip - Google Drive ? Did it work for you?

      I see a bunch of puppets and scenes but I couldn't figure out which one had the issue, and several seem to be missing the artwork files. This is why we recommend .puppet files instead of projects - the artwork + rigging are always together.
