Introduction to Maya - Rendering in Arnold
This course will look at the fundamentals of rendering in Arnold. We'll go through the different light types available, cameras, shaders, Arnold's render settings and finally how to split an image into render passes (AOV's), before we then reassemble it i

First, crop out the unnecessary parts of your image and scale it down some.

Instead of binding, try parenting the claw digits to the skeleton joints individually. That should prevent the deformations you're getting.

You could also smooth bind things like rope.

Rigid and smooth binding are for objects that need to bend at the joints area (rigid bends a bit different than smooth).
Parenting the objects in the joint hierarchy will make the object rotate with its parent joint and will not deform.
That's the way to go when building a skeleton for mechanical simulations and such.
