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

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

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

Made some improvements to my old ammo feed mechanism!😄 It's now more flexible, easier to setup, and more optimised :) Still a few things to iron out, but i'm happy with the direction! #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

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

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

Shoulder strap rigged✅ Using MCH B-Bones on a simple DEF chain, worked really well for this! Ended up with a super flexible and easy to tweak setup. Only the holster left to rig on this outfit, and then it's onto the other 12...😅 #blender #rigging #rig

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

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

These shoulder correctives drove me mad... but I finally got there! I'm really pleased with this result😄I wasn't very optimistic after many broken attempts... But I'm glad to have pulled through and resulted with this!🤤 #blender #rig #rigging

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

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

Thigh deforms complete🤤 Also set up the leg IK and FK! Progress is being made toward FINALLY completing the rig XD This style of footroll will always be one of my favourites to set up and test. Very satisfying... #blender #3d #rigging

Made an update to the grapple rig! improved controller behaviour, and new flexibility to the "spiral" control! everything works a lot nicer now, and looks even better than before! #blender #rigging

Zhu Yuan arm and shoulder-plate correctives are in place!😄 Similar mechanism to my Lara Croft project but with some extra optimisations. The shoulder plate was a struggle but I believe I've reached a pleasant point with it after a handful of tries. #blender #rig #rigging

Does anybody have any resources for Shoulder Rigging? This looks fine when raising the arms to T Pose level, but raising them overhead always deforms incorrectly. I'm not sure if it's the placement of the shoulder bones, the weight painting or the model! #blender #b3d

Definitely stepping out of my comfort zone! I'm trying to learn how to reliably/consistently apply motion capture data onto my custom rigs, and also get a grasp on how this all works. Slowly learning with a lot of trial and error. but i'm getting there!😁 #blender #rigging

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

I made a mechanism that fakes physics when moved, without any cyclic dependencies :) It makes use of a copy transform reference bone that always drives the rotation, and Location/damped track offset bones. It's pretty great for subtle secondary motion! #blender #rig #rigging
