Dog Rig

This asset was modeled, UVed, and then rigged by me for the Gibba Gibba project. The intention behind the rig was to be simple but also allow for stylized animations. I rigged everything manually in Maya utilizing a switchable IK/FK rig for the legs and ensured the orientation for the ears and tail allowed for smooth rotation.

My main goal with this rig was ensuring there was enough control for posing despite the very round shape of the dog and practicing doing a strangley shaped quadraped.
