@acchan: yeah I saw your comment on his post. I've seen his work many times but I don't follow him. I could definitely use some inspiration for more dynamic lighting

I watched the playback hoping the one on the right would start as a super simplistic, silly looking cartoon cat too and I'm not disappointed hddhdsvv
