MAKING-OF AVAILABLE:    • Say hi, Mimi! – Making of  

My 2nd Blender test. This one is much more ambitious than the last one since it tackles Grease Pencil (amazing tool btw, and not too hard to use in this case), some rigging (mainly modifying an existing rig), and much more extensive compositing.
Also learning DaVinci Resolve (more extensively, though I'm yet to fully master it at the moment).

A huge shoutout to ‪@hisanimations‬ and the entire TF2-Blender community for the tools and tips. 👍

Credits (please correct me if I'm wrong):

Mimi Sentry base design: Flyingpiggles10
Mimi Sentry base model (SFM port): Mochi
Mimi Blender port: ‪@Untitled_Niamiko‬ and ‪@ai_zaqraven99‬
(My modifications consists on removing facial features for Grease Pencil overdraw, adding a lattice for jaw deformations, modifying materials, adding bones for the hairs, and switching all rotation orders from quaternions to euler).

Spy's voice comes from different movie clips with Thierry Lhermitte (in particular "Le père Noël est une ordure" from 1982 and "Le Dîner de cons" from 1998)

No AI was used there, it's pure voice mixing. (Figured I might leave that note just in case) 😉
