Welcome to 2017. It's gonna be an awesome year - here is why. Today the Toon Character Training by Dillon Gu expands with its third and final instalment, focused on animation!

<a href="https://cloud.blender.org/p/toon-character-workflow/586e75561f474215e57bc3f6"> ![Archi walk](https://i.imgur.com/TsXlScv.png) </a>

In this new section, Dillon focuses on how to use the rig controls to do some animation with Archibald. Most of the training is about creating a walk cycle, with a final video breaking down the animation process for his popular winter gif.

Fight!

We hope you will enjoy this training! As usual, feel free to write comments/ask questions on the videos. Dillon will be around :)

Hello! I really enjoyed this tutorial series!

I have a request and it is one that I feel would improve the community as a whole.

I would like to see a scripting tutorial series starting with the basics of learning python in blender so those who might not know python or how to program at all can get a taste of it, moving onto more advanced and practical uses of scripting in blender and possibly ending on how to create addons for Blender, Helping to inspire more people to develop tools and improve their workflow with scripting.

Maybe even a game development course would even expand on this subject.

Thank you guys! I Always subscribe to blender cloud when I can, I like to support a program I really believe stands out from the rest! Keep up the amazing work!
