Great man

I just have a question is that White-ish Silver you used for the second model?

Thanks guys!

I am planning to make the next tutorials like these:

3. Grouping and rigging

4. Scenes and backgrounds

5. Montage

6. Bonus stuff

I found a trick on how to make model look like ghost.

Use the super white color (ID 132) and render model with outlines.

Depending on the shader level you can make model semi transparent or invisible

Sorry missed you comment... The normal model uses normal white, while the super white model uses a bug to render bricks in total white.

Very nice tutorial and clever designed characters.

It is clearly visible, how much effort you invest into these tutorials. Thank you.

Thanks guys! I will be starting my third aniamtion tutorial tommorrow and I am gonna try to streamline it a bit more, first showing the final animation sequence and than how:to steps. I do have to warn that the way things have gone with first two tutorials, the third one may be longer...
