Are you ready to create rigs for various different vehicles? Utilising 3D models that are hand-crafted, high quality and built specifically for this course, we learn how to use the various rigging tools available within the Blender software and turn your static pictures into exciting animations!

The course features five different vehicles for you to practice and learn from! There’s also the preliminaries, universal rigs and the general guidelines which are designed to further your learning and understanding further. Each project is detached from the other ones; instead of bringing in and reusing too many elements from previous rigs, we reaffirm and harden the understanding required to build using armatures and look at where each vehicle is unique. The ultimate aim is to get you used to using armatures, drivers, custom properties, curves and various other tools!

All rigs are designed for ease of use by an animator (the ultimate end user of our rigs.) Whilst there’s a lot going on under the hood with our creations, the animator will simply see the relevant controller bones and be able to use them straight away!
