the best way to model for rigging is a matter of opinion, however one large camp of opinion is that you should model your character at rest, so with a slight bend in most joints. Model them as if they were standing there normally, gravity included, then rig that and it will deform more naturally too.
Hello! It's the first time I post here so I'll make a little description. 3 years ago I finished a school of 3D artist and I got a base of what a video game artist need to know. Since then I got some job in little company where, most of the time, they had 1 or 2 artists who need to do a lot of things. It was very pleasant,…
Now I started the topology to clean the model and bring her to a most efficient work in rigging. The body seems not to bad as a low poly one (I'm going to at least subdivide once more for rigging) You can see WIP here : https://skfb.ly/6MWQC
Yep books are a bitch to rig up. There is a lot of complex motion taking place. The last book I had to rig up I did with bones for the spine and pages then used morph targets to adjust the shape of the pages. This might also help, http://vimeo.com/32288243
Just a quick WIP of the first character to be created for my own personal mod, I'm still working on the textures and rig of it, I just have to finish rigging the arms and then thats done, the texture still needs a good bit of work, all c & c welcome
1. Use a character-set and TRAX-clips for this. 3. What exactly in character-studio are you looking for. Are you looking for pre-made rigs, I'm sure there's rigs to download. If it's an option for you I would recomend looking at Motion builder. 4. Motion builder.
Hi everyone ! After watching the Last Dance series on Netflix, I wanted to do a basketball animation 🏀 simple to start!

I'm working on rigging a mechanical quadruped using CAT bones. The rear "knee" joints face backwards in relation to the CAT parent. Is there a way to mirror CAT bones from front to back, or distribute them radially around the pelvis at certain intervals? I only know about left/right mirroring with bones. Image of rig in…
I am trying to rig a new model to the old hydralisk bone animations. However whenever I apply weight to any part of the model from the bone the mode becomes distorted. I don't understand what I am doing incorrectly after reading rigging guides and some youtube demonstrations.
Hi everybody! Going to enter this with some blockouts messing with a character using giant gears strapped to his arms for bashing into enemies and rolling around. I think these could be a bit more interesting though, or scrapped for something more flashy altogether, so this may not be the final character. Also, the rig is…
