This is my fourth - and, for now, probably the last - article about Mecabricks here on Brickset. In the first three tutorials, you basically learned everything that you'll need in order to build fantastic digital MOCs, add custom decorated pieces to them, and make beautiful lifelike renders of your creations on Mecabricks. There's one more thing that you might want to do, and Mecabricks gives a really nice solution for it - animations.
Before I start, I'd like to thank you everyone who read my tutorials, and tried out Mecabricks, and also thank you for your kind comments, it gave me so much motivation lately!

I originally started to write this article a couple of weeks (or maybe months) ago, during the lockdown, but I was too busy to finish it, and in the meantime Mecabricks got many updates, and the original article became a bit outdated, so I decided it's time to write a new one. I hope you'll enjoy reading it, and it will help you learn the basics of building in Mecabricks!
