Add a simple example on how to blend combat animations with the locomotion system
Create masks for makeup and brows to fill the slots available at the skin shader. For now, there are masks only for the lips and nails. I recommend the use of the skin builder product to fill those slots while there is no free texture available.
Make the actor components blueprints more modular and plug and play.
