Hello! Currently learning blender and wanted to ask a curious question after seeing your adorable animations. How do you do eyes, in particular Susie and Nicole's ones. Their expressions with their eyes is so animated I am curious how you do it.
Hi there!! Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoy the way I do expressions! I'm assuming you mean Noelle? :D
Anyway here's a closer look at Susie and the way her eye works. I just gave her one eye and left the other one covered by her hair since it would've ended up looking goofy.
Here's a close-up of the eye and the shader nodes!
For extra morphed expressions, I make custom eyes which don't adhere to the rig. They're usually just spheres with the same shader.
Here's Noelle's eye rig and a little bit of a goofy showcase of her eye/eyebrows rig:
I used lattices to make the eyes stretchy!
I also used nodes for the pupils because in this house we love to avoid image textures. 🤭 The purple thingy is a driver, which switches between her dark and light world eye color.
Hope this was insightful and not too much technobabble. Best of luck on learning Blender!!

Its a lot less noticable in 2020 vs 2014/16 but still there nonetheless, easier to notice if you look at the bottom of the circle.
hey so I started with the movie and now I'm here and I just need y'all to know my shock when I didn't know how it would look under the slip cover or inside I just -
