Gear Rotation Animation

An animation of Gears rotating with each other. Learned this from watching ToaofTech’s gear tutorial on youtube.
Edit: Woah, I didn’t know I uploaded in 2k resolution. lol Must’ve forgotten that I changed the resolution in Blender.

(Currently working on re-doing armatures and bone parenting due to the armature lagging blender’s interface.)

did you have to animate every single gear rotation?

nope. I used a copy rotation on all the gears to copy an empty object. I applied half of the gears with inverse rotation so that they properly rotate with the other gears. The power of Blender. :slight_smile:
If this was stop motion, then I would have to animate every gear.[quote=“Xevins, post:4, topic:36808”]
Since they are interconnected you would only need to move one.
