Anime-Style Character test + Mouth Rig Test

This is my first attempt at creating an anime style character. In the end i figured that i had encountered a lot of problems and that it would not be worth trying to finish this character, but that i did gain useful knowledge for a future attempt.

The Character is made up of multiple parts:
The Base Mesh
The Socks
The Shoes
The Dress
The Skirt
2 Layers of shirt
The Eyes
The Mouth
And the Hair

These all get layered on top of each other to make the character appear more detailed. The plan was for these parts to be individually textured as well, but now they just consist of very basic colors.

This is also the first time i tried to attempt to make a mouth rig, and while i did get pretty far, i thought it was a bit unpractical in it’s use and just like the character itself i figured that this was a good test attempt and that i gained knowledge, but that it was not worth trying to fix the shortcomings of this attempt.
