focus_method

Hi,

i am creating 3d character artwork for my personal project, work in progress...
so i want him to look directly to the camera from which im rendering my main shot. How to do it ?
i centered cluster in the both eyes and then snapped locator in each of them in the middle of the eyes

You are asking how to rig them?

If just doing a simple pose or even a simple animation, you can just keyframe the vertices. Select all verts of the eye, set a keyframe at default position, go to another frame, rotate the vertices so that eye faces desired location, set a keyframe.

Reason to key default is so that you can return to it easily.

Add look-at constraints to the eyeballs and point them to the camera object or a dummy object.
