So a brows and eye pass are all I got done today, I think the end doesnt feel right I'm thinking his eyes and brows should open on the word "COME" right now I have it at "ON" just having some troubles. I want to work on the hands at the end and the lipsync tomorrow and tighten up the brows and eyes again. Anyway here it is.

Lip Sync Part 2

So here is the last 50 frames of lip-sync. Worked on the jaw and the corners didn't really have a lot of time to work on the lips or the brows and eyes but I will work on that tomorrow and I also fixed a few notes in the beginning. Next will be fixing notes on the end and polishing anything else.
