See How Expressive Deadlock's Mina's Face Can Be With This Blender Rig

Enjoy some fantastic character acting in zombielord999's animations.

3D Animator known as zombielord999 has been showcasing their impressive character animation and rigging skills lately, with Mina Ha from Valve's upcoming multiplayer game Deadlock taking the spotlight in their recent work. According to them, the character model was sourced from Open3DLab, and the rig is based on Project Storm, a high-quality, fully animation-ready stylized character rig released by Blender Studio last year.
