I'm trying to animate a blink using textures and I am using a two image texture connected to a mix colour node and when I move the "fac" slider the textures do not change. I do not know what I have done wrong, any help please? (Keep in mind, I am a beginner so I don't really know that much about Blender)

$\begingroup$ @moonboots Hello, I tried this however I didn't work I'm pretty sure I'm doing it wrong, Is there any way you could attach a screenshot of how it should look like? $\endgroup$– mxnisaCommented Oct 26, 2020 at 12:30

$\begingroup$ maybe pack your images (File > External Data > Pack All Into .blend) and share your file here (read the instructions): blend-exchange.giantcowfilms.com or pasteall.org/blend $\endgroup$– moonbootsCommented Oct 26, 2020 at 12:33

$\begingroup$ ok so I've corrected my answer, I thought you were using a Mix Shader but you are using a MixRGB so the setup I show is correct $\endgroup$– moonbootsCommented Oct 26, 2020 at 13:13

Ok so as you're using a MixRGB, you can indeed mix the 2 Image Texture nodes into the MixRGB, then you need to plug the MixRGB into a Diffuse, then the Diffuse into an Output:
MixRGB is used to mix 2 colors and/or images, but you need to tell Blender what kind of shader it is supposed to be, between Diffuse (which will be affected by light and shadows) and Emission (which emits light). In your case I guess you need Diffuse.
Another equal solution would be to use the Mix Shader, in that case you need this setup, as Mix Shader doesn't directly accept images or colors:

$\begingroup$ oh ok, anyway the Diffuse and Output were missing so you wouldn't have been able to see anything $\endgroup$ Commented Oct 26, 2020 at 13:21
