Rigging My Character

16:05

Now that my character is all modelled I have started rigging. Its a pretty basic rig to be honest but it does what it needs to do for this project. While doing the rig I have found a couple of areas on the model I would change or do differently if I were to do the project again so its been a good learning experience. 




 I think I need a lot more practice at painting weights as I'm never quite sure if I'm doing it right.



UPDATE: I have broken my rig, not sure how, But the model is already posed so I will finish everything else first and go back and fix it if I have time.
