Rigging Practice

This assignment was to follow some instructions in our text book to build the underlying skeleton for a character named Leon.

Over the course of the next few weeks I'll be learning how to connect the rig to the model, and use it to animate the character. Here are a few quick screenshots: as always, click on the screenshot to see the larger picture.

Here they are: Click on the picture to see a full-scale image.
