Robots Development - Bumblebee

Same went for Bumblebee! I had already had a good idea of what to do after doing Kettle. A little bit different since bumblebee collects resources.

This was my very first animation for Bumblebee, where he is just collecting resources. Obviously, I wanted to develop it further.

Craig suggested it would be nice if I added a bit of a shake to his arm when he is cutting the ground, so I did that

Mohsin said it would be cool if I made him an animation where he just lifts his arm from collecting resources to follow the player, so I did that. But his left arm was weird

I changed it but I think I went too far

Then I simplified it and it looked better

But then Mohsin said he expecting his arm to be higher so it looked more harmful and pressuring.

Then I also worked on an Idle animation for him just like Kettle's so that we could be two bumblebees with different personalities.
