Gideon+Minifig == Skeletal Shenanigans
by Thomas -elfprince13- Dickerson · 08/01/2011 (9:40 am) · 6 comments
Here's an entertaining video showing off what happens when you attempt to rig a Lego minifigure to Gideon's skeleton without any modifications. There really isn't all that much more to it, except that I find these sort of "development bloopers" to be good fun and worth sharing. I'll try to post more of these as I have more interesting accidents/stages of partial completion. It also helps keep a bit of a "lets see how far we've come" log.
Please excuse the greyed-out introduction. Youtube and Handbrake don't seem to be good buddies.

Haha, I remember the good old days of the Orange Guy looking like this when I exported animations wrong... fun for the whole family!
