In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

Error during Paint Skin Weights
I seem to be encountering this strange error while rigging... as you can see the attached picture, there are some strange spear like protrusions which appear as i try to paint skin weights, using paint operation: replace...
i have tried to smooth them out as well, but it doesnt seem to work.
i cant figure out the reason this i s happening and thereby cannot seem to correct this error!
pleeeasssseee heeellllppp!

Also...(Error during Paint Skin Weights)
1) modeled the character
2) separated head (coz i wanted it like that)
textures
3) set up the skeleton for the entire body (MINUS THE JAW BONE)
4) made a separate bone structure for the tongue and jaw (i had a reference of another character which did the same, and wanted to try that out...)
5) selected the body and head and the all the bones and applied the smooth skin option....(i think i went wrong around here - perhaps in the selection??? )
i wanted to move the jaw and had to work on the paint skin weights...but now that jaw is not moving the way i want it either....(see the attached pics)... which is why i needed to remove the influence, but that resulted in the moved verts...(only for the tongue bone no.3, particularly)....
