Updating what has been called one of the best books onanimation by
top animators, this new book includes even more pre-rigged models,
discussion of the new animation tools found in LightWave 3D 8,
and the fastest way to do dialogue and performance.
The first half (which IS Lightwave-specific) is a step-by-step tutorial for building
a rather esoteric IK rig for a humanoid character. I didn't find it helpful--nothing in
the exercises seems designed to expand the reader's understanding, it's just
a recipe for reconstructing Albee's rig. I suspect any reader without a
previous understanding of how bones work in Lightwave
will be completely frustrated.
If you're a beginner looking for a technical resource to animating
in Lightwave, this is definitely *not* it. Any potential buyers
should browse through a copy before buying this.
