Salum is a sentient salt shaker who is concentrated rage contained in a tiny body (think an angry chihuahua). While he is on a quest for vengeance, he’s not capable of much in the body he is currently in. It is advised not to reach into the salt contained in his ceramic body.

Rigged using Rapid Rig, Salum has a custom mouth skeleton blended with the main skeleton, enabling extreme deformations.

The following images are a record of the development of the character ending with a short test performance animation.
