Week 14

Alright, last week was Thanksgiving and it's time to get back into the groove. Due to some unfortunate life endeavors, I've kind of struggled a bit to get back into this project. Anyways, I've gone ahead and done some control replacements on the giraffe and zebra. I noticed that some of my control placement choices were not really the best and ultimately did not make sense. In example, the individual hip controls I had were not functioning due to the IK handles. Since those controls were originally labeled to be IK, it made sense that I get some working IK handles in there. I also put in some pole vectors into the knees and the giraffes wrists. The elbows were unneeded since the shoulder controls were already manipulating them. After that I have begun some weight mapping on the giraffe. It's slow going but it's going none the less. Big problem was trying to get the map to show at first (which it refused to do.) But it's working now so no problems. Again, not a lot to show yet other than this picture. I'll have more to show next week.
