Getting even closer, but it's not quite there yet... The property needs to be automated with drivers, which also needs to account for the oval shape and its pivot😵‍💫 But i think this is a step in the right direction. #blender #rigging

When modelling, I think it's good practice to test mechanical parts with a rough rig I would hate to get past the UV's/Textures/Baking, gotten to the rig, and realise that i've made a lot more work for myself because the parts don't work😆 #blender #modelling #rigging

Inspired by dotflare, I added a breathing controller to my Lara rig! This is such a great mechanism for easy idle animations. I set mine up with extrapolated transformation constraints on an MCH layer, and i'm super pleased with how it looks😁 #blender #rigging #rig

Optimised Footroll extend mechanism! Before I had to use transformation constraints and add a counter transformation to flatten the foot as the tip rotated. Now i get to use simple copy rotations and just add drivers to the influence! much quicker to set up😁 #blender #rigging

Phew. All the face weights are in! No doubt I'll have to revise a few things during the controller rigging. But at least I can get things started now! Getting closer and closer, to finishing this project. #blender #rigging

Did you know, on my Mimic rig you can scale the EYE_MASTER and the eyes will move according to the axis you're scaling on! This keeps editing the graph, nice and easy since almost all transforms can be made with this control :D #fnafsecretofthemimic #blender #rig

It feels so good to see the character move after spending so long setting up DEF bones and weight painting! Only the cloth to finish! And then i can start building the control rig 😈 Despite weighting/skinning being widely hated... i actually really love this process 😅

Shoulder turret is complete ✅ Utilises a B-Bone + Armature constraint mechanism for the ammo chain, which gives really nice motion from one or two controllers. Super easy to space switch too! Now it's time for the big man himself to come alive...

Making a small looping animation to test the ODM gear! Managed to make a few adjustments to the rig from this quick test. Including optimising and a few parenting behaviours Feedback is always appreciated! #blender #AttackOnTitan #wip

Finished my short firing animation! The rig testing went well, everything feels great and optimised! I'm very happy😁 Rigging, VFX, and Compositing by myself SFX from Titanfall #blender #animation #rigging #TombRaider

Don't be afraid to start over!😅 I wasn't happy with my arm correctives, so I completely reworked them... It definitely looks and feels more natural now compared to how it was before. I will probably see what I can do to improve the thigh corrective next #blender #rigging #rig

Much happier with these updated thigh correctives! A big improvement from my original setup, but still isn't perfect when pushed to an extreme. The thigh squish is handled by shape keys, and the calf+hamstring are b-bones with transformation constraints😄 #blender #rigging #rig

Blender Pistol Rig! I applied my magazine helper, to an actual project! I'm really happy with this weapon rig so far :D it's super smooth and should have all the tools for easy animation! - Magazine helpers - Auto shell eject - Customisation options #blender #rigging

After studying some references and posts from other rigging artists, i've ended up with this clean DEF setup for the torso/shoulders. With this rig, I'm challenging myself to take my DEF layer to the next level. So far so good!😄 #blender #rigging #rig

Spent the whole day working on the thigh deforms... It's not 100%, but it's definitely an improvement from my old setups!😄 I've got the twist/breakdown bones left to do here, and a lot more learning to do in the future. but for now, i'm pretty pleased. #blender #rigging #rig

Added some more automation to my magazine rig 😁 Using drivers i'm able to enable the property, as soon as the magazine gets close to the threshold. It has its limits, but from animating just one bone and a property, i think it's pretty good! #blender #rig #rigging

Working my way through the Assault Rifle rig! I still absolutely love my auto magazine mechanism, and i've got an extra firing MCH idea that i want to try out on this rig. It's a little different to the Pistol rig, but should be fun and useful!😄 #blender #rigging #rig

Hologram shader! I thought it would be cool to give this character the ability to clone herself with holograms, holopilot style So i ended up with this cool customisable setup! Never played the game that the character is from so i'm just freestyling features #blender #shader

First look at the grapple rig! I'm so very pleased with how this has turned out. It's got as much control as i could put in, without overwhelming it, and all exportable to game engine!! I'm so excited to keep expanding on this rig. #blender #rigging #rig

Here's what I have made for the finger correction!😁 It might be overkill, and it did take over 3 hours... But i believe that it's the little details like this that make a big difference overall! It's all about keeping that volume preserved :) #blender #rigging #rig

Aaand- done! Pretty simple rig overall, but has all the features I need, and looks as menacing as ever!😁 I will test this rig with an animation before uploading it to Gumroad, just to make sure everything is working as well as it can be! #blender #rig #rigging #Helldivers2

Small update on the ODM rig, took a surprising amount of troubleshooting to get this result :D The idea behind this, was to tweak the position of the model on different shaped/sized characters using Anchor bones. so that the rig is as universal as possible! #blender #rigging

I made this controller that straightens FK chains from the base!😄 It uses drivers on the MCH layer, that get offset through the expression. It creates a different arc in the tail than the basic FK curvature, and works really well for sharks! #blender #rigging #rig

Got the Handle Wires rigged up on my ODM gear!😮‍💨 This was quite a headache, but i'm happy with these results! I have a Tweak chain following a Spline IK, following a Bezier curve which is controlled by controllers parented to an IK chain... #blender #rigging #rig

My Face rig for Lara Croft is finished! Here's a quick little showcase of the controllers and rig properties I also added a Lip-sync control! It's really nice for quick mouth speech animations, all toggle-able and non destructive :) #Blender #rigging #rig

All done! And it looks so satisfying 😍 It turned out to be really simple once you handle the strings in segments instead of being one whole object. Just have the controllers to polish and some clean-up to do and that's a wrap! I'm so pleased :) #blender #rigging #rig

Just finished up the wrist! I found that, using 4 bones for each axis of correction and parenting that to a semi-rotating bone works really nicely! The forearm twisting correction is something simple but very effective at reducing the "candy wrapper" effect. #blender #rigging

New project, who dis? Just finished cleaning this model from The First Descendant! It has taken a while, but it's finally ready to be rigged Just a few more things i want to do before adding bones... I'm very excited to share this rig once finished and tested😌 #blender
