Joint orientation in Maya?
I'm working on setting up a rig for a robotic character, but orienting the joins has been an issue for me.

However, it seems that I am unable to locally orient the finger… -
Root Golem
Working on a project to improve my texturing skills and create a nice piece in general. Concept All credit goes to him for the concept, I'm just making the model off of it.

Re: Japanese develop 'female' android
Sheesh, they need to get some better motors in there and hire a proper animator! The animations suck, the "model" can probably be done better by other companies as well but I don't think we should try to make androids look too realistic. I mean, we won't see any form of larger robot become commonplace anyway, not with all… -
