NOT A FULL AO! NOT A FULL AO! NOT A FULL AO!
DO NOT USE WITH AN AO THAT IS ALREADY BENTO ENABLED!
As of a recent discovery this product is no longer compatible with Kemono hands- there are reported warping/mishaping problems that I have not been able to fix yet.
You have bento rigged hands and LOVE your current AO... shopping for a whole new one while fun can be expensive and tough to do and still retain your own individuality sometimes.
SO! I offer a solution, a simple little hud attachment that plays only hand animations. It works with the AO you are already wearing and animates the hands at random intervals so that you can continue to enjoy your current AO and still dabble in the fun and flexibility of bento rigged hands!
Here are some six second gifs of the animations included in this product since demos for animations are terribly difficult to do over the market place.

To specify this is NOT a full AO it animates ONLY the hands and ONLY if they are rigged for bento animations. THESE WILL NOT WORK WITH STATIC HANDS!
THESE WILL NOT WORK IF YOU ALREADY HAVE A HAND ANIMATOR (LIKE THE MAITREYA CYCLER) RUNNING
THESE WILL NOT WORK IF THE AO YOU USE IS ALREADY BENTO ENABLED FOR THE HANDS
THERE IS AN INSTRUCTION AND TROUBLESHOOTING NOTECARD IN THE PACKAGE! - I am more than happy to help with my product but if I'm not online (as happens sometimes) it's a good idea to go over the information I've provided in the packaging. Many times the issues my customers are experiencing are covered there.
Don't forget to check our inworld location! just getting started but fun things are on the horizon!
OH! and an important note that i'm adding here after speaking with a customer-

Its better than static fingers.
So I didn't want to give up my favorite AO and unfortunately when Belleza updated the bodies to bento, they didn't put a hand animator in the new bodies, so I was looking for an AO I liked. I gave this one a try and read the instructions for use. I tried the 'hand engine' as instructed and it 'broke' my fingers badly. Misshapen and deformed. I went back, read the instructions again and tried the 'anim engine' instead and that helped the strange deformities and my fingers were no longer broken. My one criticism on the way the hand looks is the fingers in a relaxed position are still very splayed out looking. I think its a wonderful idea and I'm grateful for a way to use my AO, but I think it just needs a bit more tweaking to be perfect.
Used with Belleza hands
Love this!!! Absolutely needed for anyone that does not want to give up their full body AO but wants movement for their bento hands! Slam dunk! The anims are nice, smooth, realistic and natural. I'm surprised others aren't making just hand huds. I hope you do another one in the future, maybe with the option to not mirror. Excellent anims!! Thank you for making this!!
Works with Belleza, yes!
The long anticipated release of Bento hands for Belleza immediately posed a problem for me. I didn't want to give up my AO. It's as much a part of my personality as is my face. :) So I went looking, and found this little gem of an hand animator. At first, I bought the Animator 2, and it worked great. And so I bought this one, and wanted to combine the two, but my fingers looked broken on my first attempt. Then I read Canonli's review, and tried the hand .anim engine, and presto! 8 animations in one hud. It was easy too. Just rez them on the ground, drag and drop the animations from the hand animator 2, into the hand .anim engine contents, take it back and wear it. Couldn't be simpler. Thank you Qilu for making them!
Works on Belezza Bento
Got this to see what happened with the Belleza release that had Bento enabled hands. The Hand Engine gave me dislocated fingers but the Anim Hand Engine designed for Kemono avater hands works fairly well on the Belleza hands, all 4 anims work (just deselect hand poses in the Belleza Hud) though it does seem to gravitate to just one of the anims over the others.
