rig a quadruped animal in Blender ✨creature modeling for Unity PART 2
This is the second video in my creature modeling for Unity games series and in this one we tackle rigging and skinning / weight painting our quadruped character. I had some issues with Rigify so the footage is a little back-and-forth, but I have explained how I fixed all the issues I found!
Thanks to CGDive for this helpful video on the bug in the Wolf rigify rig: • Blender Rigify issue: Spine Flipping/...
