standard rig for practicing animation with.
Hi spender, currently i don't have the program required to make tutorials, but if you give me a bit of time i will do one for you. There is way too much bones in the rig to explain what each does. If you give me a email address i will send you a simple instruction sheet on how to use him. Be sure to let me know what version of blender you use, and a little on how much experience you have with blender so i can understand how to help you out better. I know that the rig needs 1 or 2 adjustments which i wlll do and re upload to Blendswap, but these are not serious issues and shouldn't affect you using the rig in the meantime. Thanks for uploading the rig, i will help you as best i can, P.D.
Youtube uploader VscorpianC on youtube made a video tutorial on How to Use Blender's screencast feature to make Blender tutorials...check it out...
Hi, Well Dunne and thanks for your reply. Yes I have some experience from Blender 2.4 and now 2.5 - 2.59. I am running at a imac Intel 10.6.8 64 bits and Blender 2.59 64 bits. Long time ago I bought Venoms lab and Character Animation CD cours made for Blender 2.4 But that time it was to complicated for me.
I donate or buy something similar for 2.59. But I dont think I need to learn everything from scratch how to modelling, texture and material.
Left to learn is to know how to use walkcycles with IK/FK and better lipsync and I still have trubble with centering objects to each other and conect eyebones with headbones. I try with everything. Ctrl+P. Ctrl+J, Shift+Ctrl+Alt+C and Ctrl+A rotation+location and Shift + S cursor for selected.
I have practising plenty of time with this tutorials http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9bHc2SDg3w&feature=relmfu http://cgcookie.com/blender/2010/01/04/rigging-an-alien/
