Damn, that model looks class. Will you be putting out a 56k friendly animation by any chance? I'd love to see him in action.

Keep in mind when your fighting someone you are taught to keep your eyes on your opponent, this in its self would keep you head ans neck pretty still. Well thats whay i wa taught in kick boxing.

I am finding it daunting trying to name everything - takes forever. Is there a way to name them all quiclky?
Also, do you grab another skeleton and scale it, and modify it for each character? Or do you create a new skeleton each time?
I love your work.

Imagine handing off a character/skeleton to the person whos going to bind the character... if the joints are not labeled he/she going to have a much harder time binding and waste a lot of time figuring out what joint is what.
You should also get in the habit of building you own skeletons and rigs its a good thing to know and get good at. I make a new one for each character.
Thanks for enjoying my work
