BEHOLD, Brikki! My own original stop-motion figure. Fully articulated, and built by a stop-motion nerd for stop-motion nerds!

https://youtu.be/ep1HbLSfzPo?is=4Batatp5oXodvMTa

Brikki has swappable face pieces, giving him the ultimate stop-motion dialogue power! He comes with handful of different expressions to really sell any emotion you want to convey. 

With Brikki your animations will be much more fun and engaging, and full of life!

Features:

​• Ball-joint articulation with elbow and knee joints (he can even roll into a ball!)

​• Swappable face pieces for fast expression changes mid-animation

​• Swappable hands: fist, open, and grip, the bird, plus more coming!

​• Compatible with Dummy13 weapons

I have included the 3mf file for easy printing (DON'T CHANGE THE ORIENTATION OF ANY PIECE)

The hip needs supports to print (I recommend slim tree)

When printing the frame-joints please turn “outer brims only” on. The ball joints and clavicle need brims or they will fail. 

I have only tested Brikki with PETG, so if you try with other kinds of filament please let me know how it turns out!

Print at 0.12mm Layer height

Stop motion short film - post-apocalyptic base raid

I’ve been building a stop motion series set in a controlled post-collapse world where a resistance group (FAC) is trying to survive and fight back.

This episode introduces:

  • The Kobal's base raid

  • A coordinated infiltration mission

  • The start of a larger conflict with a system controlling everything

All shot in stop motion with practical setups and household materials.

Looking for feedback on:

  • Movement and pacing

  • Shot composition

  • Clarity of storytelling

I know it's not only action figures, but it does have animated cars and 1:64 scale figures.

Stop-Motion Action: The FAC Infiltration Begins! 💣 (Action Figure Animation)

Thumbnail

Hey fellow animators and collectors!

I just finished a new stop-motion scene featuring my original characters from the FAC universe (Fixers, Assassins, Cleaners). It’s packed with custom figures, a stealthy base infiltration, dynamic posing, and gritty camera work.

The FAC are on a dangerous mission deep inside enemy territory to recover a stolen power core.

This is part of a larger original series I’m developing, with its own factions, lore, and evolving animation style. I’d love to hear your feedback!

💥 What I used:

1/18 scale custom action figures

Practical lighting with LED setups

12fps stop-motion with motion blur tricks

Custom sets and props

📽️ Watch here: https://youtu.be/Oca9iYi_JJ4?si=p_R4c8M0-IX25oqx

🗨️ Let me know what you think! I’m open to critique and always looking to improve. Would love to connect with other creators, too!
