While I have gone through the previous rigging tutorial, I'm nonetheless surprised to see it done so quickly and while keeping clear exactly what you're doing. You've really got a knack for this. And yes, seeing a process on a slightly more advanced character would be greatly appreciated.

Does anybody else hate being stuck on a project and looking up a tutorial, only to find 20 minute long videos that might have the information you need? I love this channel because it's short and concise. I get all the information I need to know in about 3 minutes and I'm back working on my project.

Yeah but I ended up having to replay the video multiple times because my rig isn't working. I don't know where I went wrong. So in that aspect, a concise tutorial can be bad.

Indeed! straight to the point, no bullshit. Royal is one of the best channels in the Blender community.

Straight, to the point, and no filler. Showing how to rig a non human character is even better since it actually TEACHES you how to do things instead of just "Yeah, download a plugin and press a button." 11/10 tutorial.

he could've slowed down some though, alot of stuff he was saying and doing wound up being blended together cause of how fast he was talking and doing everything, which made me wind up needing to rewind MANY times lol

I would personally love to see more of this exact video but on different model types, this was very helpful but I think seeing the process on more models that are quite different will help with being able to apply this knowledge to anything, thank you for the great tutorial

yes!

Never EVER listen to people that tell you to slow down your tutorials. I learned to Rig in Blender through your tutorials. Granted, it took a few watches to get all of the details BUT that's preferable to the typical suuuuuuuuuper slow tutorial style most asshats in youtube use where they stop to explain every step.... or when they start by telling you how to add a cube.... The beauty of video is that you can re-watch as many times as you need! Keep making fast condensed videos and never EVER slow them down. :D

If you can't comprehend or visually see a demonstration of what their trying to describe, their not creating a tutorial their just speed running a process and expecting you to understand. This tut is not a great example of anything to try to follow along to, it's just a demonstration of how it can be done in less then 5 minutes with a very simple model.

​@@SirKeeganPenney to some extend making things too long will hinder the learning experience imo. But you are right if this is a paid rigging course i would be fuming, but as a short youtube video perfect, now i know the basics and can look up the details myself in my speed how i want to

THIS! this is how you do tutorials, everyone watch and learn. no fillers, to the point and explains it like he is explaining it to a 10 year old. Thank you!

Thank you for making this tutorial! I always thought rigging was kind of jank at times but this is very clear. Thanks!

Or Uzi, Like I am currently

Idk what to say other than this guy such a good teacher, there are lot of tutorials on blender on KZread but no one teach theory and practical stuff straight to the point like this guy. Totally my favourite blender teacher

This video is exactly what I wanted, since watching your shorter videos is more for one specific question but doesn't tell the whole story, this one complements your other work perfectly for being a more comprehensive answer to the whole process without being too long in itself. Well done, and thanks for the awesome work you put in!

I am here to learn - Royal skies about 15 minutes ago I saw one of your videos - these no-nonsense, anti-flux tutorials are perfect and I am amazed by your work so far!

Just a reminder that this is my favorite channel on this platform still. Thanks sensei

I loved this video. The format is great but it also made me think that it could work wonderfully as a teaser for a longer video of this exact character where you provide the character and we get to rig it along with you in real time while watching the video. That's some Patreon stuff that I would pay for. Enough of these "short" lessons and I think we could actually learn this magic :)

Genuinely a great resource! It's nice to just see you go through the thought process of why you separate the bones the way you do and suchlike. Gives more insight than a step by step tutorial

I've been struggling to find a simple but and effective way to pose my characters, especially for animations. This video helps a lot getting a better ideas on how to set up IK properly! Thank you again!

I don't usually comment on videos but here I absolutely must convey my gratitude. I feel like I learned a mountain of information in a short span and it was invigorating! Not only seeing it all happen in real time showing me that if you can do it so can I! Especially with rigging which always eluded me while I tried to learn it. Short, concise, to the point, magnificent. Thank you for being you, and keep being you!!!!

Royal always delivers and never fails me. Glad I joined and support him.

A lot of people have said something similar to this already, but the condensed theme of the video is really helping me. Specifically the bit about “don’t follow along” really helped change my perspective on how to approach learning blender :D

Oh my gosh this just made my year! I had no idea why my meshes just WOULD NOT RIG CORRECTLY! I followed all the steps people had, straight forward, but never worked until I finally got 1 to work. I tried to rig up another mesh yesterday and it just wouldn't work. I watched this and tried on another mech and it works! I had to set each separate piece to parent with automatic weights to the armature, not join up the entire body and parent it! Thank you so much!

I have to say -- I'm getting back into modeling/animation after a long break (I'm talking a couple years), and this is EXACTLY the kind of tutorial I need. Short, sweet, to the point, without dragging out the basics. Thank you so much!

Thank you for this! I am a seasoned 3DS Max user, and I needed to learn how to do some things that would take me 5 minutes in Max, but I am just learning the Blender interface. This was EXACTLY what I needed! Love your tutorials!

I have not worked with rigging recently and this was a perfect refresher! Thank you!

Love your tuts. Quick, followable, Professional. Powerful. Keep goin 🌹

Note: bone symmetizing works on x axis. If you not made model right/left side on x axis from start you need to go to object mode, click rotation and in item/tool/view menu go to tool - options - transform and check origins to rotate origin point so its aligned properly. Why there no bone symetrizing on other axies no one knows.

Thank you so much! Finally, a tutorial video that isn't 45+ minutes long! I'm rigging something that has three legs just like this model, btw it's not a monster, it's a robot, and it looks completely different, I did not steal this model as an idea. edit: I changed it to four legs, It was easier to place the legs in fourths

keep the rigging coming! great video as always 👍

Great video. Normally, I have speed up tutorials, but this one, I have to slow down! Good idea asking us to sit back and watch the first time. I look forward to watching it again in detail.

Hey Royal Skies! just wanted to say some few words, Thank you so much. I am an animation student in PH and struggling, and took Game Dev major (I suck so much on coding hahaha) Your video helped me in these years and glad that I cam across you. I am still learning, but with your content, its like you are assiting me well! I am on my Senior year (Gonna repeat one more year cause I failed my senior project haha) and through this journey, I am truly greatful and hope many students, hobbyist and interested people would be helped just like how you helped me. Keep up the great work!

I don't know why, or how, but this was the best tutorial about rigging I did ever follow, soooo clear and it works soo easy!!!

This is a great video, runs through the basics enough to make me feel confident in experimenting and figuring things out

Thank you, That really explained whats going on with the rigging there!

I like the way this guy teaches quick simple and to the point im learning how to rig and animate from scratch using Blender

Thanks for you evfforts man! It's awesome!

Thank you so much! You were the only person to explain this in a way I could understand and was able to replicate, super helpful!

DOPE!! Got a lot out of it. Thnx for being organized and fast with the skillz!

Thank you, we needed more of this

From all the videos from all the years, this was exactly what I was looking for! Here's a subscribe to you good sir

Hey, super duper cool video with a master advice at the begining. Really flowy explanaition i'm now ready to have fun* with rigging ! (*hopefully)

Great tutorial! This makes it much easier to pose characters.

Tysm this helps a lot!

I love these videos so much. Ty for keeping it real 😎

yeeess, please more videos about such complicated characters! Damn, you rock!

"You need to _____ but you don't know how, Not a Problem" is like my favorite line ever in tutorials now xD you've become my go-to guy for blender info.

Brilliant as usual. Thank you!

Perfect, just what I needed! Thanks

Love your stuff, thanks!

amazing tutorial, thank you 🙏🏻

you're always there for me man

I stayed away from IK for 10 years because everytime I mess with it, it's a disaster. Then I was watching this and thought That looks super easy, why have I stayed away from IK. 6 hours later and I'm climbing back out of the IK rabbit hole again trying to fix the IK disaster I made today. I don't know what magic was done in this video, but in real life, it's not so simple.

Oh my glob duuuude !!! You're a legend !!!!! Dammit !!!

such a well done tutorial, i love it

Super helpful! Thank you so much.

nice,straight to point i need

Best tutorial hands down thank you!

Extremely clear and concise video with exactly the right amount of explanation. Really great stuff. I think you've conquered my fear of rigging in blender. Subbed.

Damn, thank you so much! I will like a lot a video like this but on the rigging mapping, with those "UI" controls

such an awsome moster my goodness

Rig us, baby! Errr... I mean, yes, we would love to see more rigging tuts.

Great video, ty!

I love this! Still some tips are useful! Thanks for making thiis tutorial!!

Amazing tutorial, thanks

I have returned to this video many times for a quick reference. Thank you yet again! I'll be back soon.

I’m currently trying to learn how to animate 3D, and this will definitely help! Thank you ❤❤❤

your teaching style = insta sub! Though I'd want a compile document so that I don't have to rewatch over and over again to drill the concepts into my brain.

Nice. Thank you!

This is the sort of speed I need!

THANKYOU SO MUCH. BEST TUTORIAL EVER

DAMN you cleared up so many questions I had about the process. THANK YOU!!

this has been the best tutorial ive seen yet man. simple as fuck a straight to the point thank god someone did it finally

Woah it reminds me of Grimm in rwby.. its so sick!!! Neat!

Love you

thanks love you man i went from knowing nothing about rigs to successfully rigging my sci-fi soldier in blender under a hour thanks to you

My guy, I don't know how I missed this video, but you just answered questions I have been hunting down for 5 years! Thank you, you gentlemanly sainted scholar of a knight that vanquished a mega space dragon!!

I would like to see a short tutorial on how you export an animated character like this, import to a blank unity project (or unreal) and then how to get the engine to use those animations correctly. Like an aquarium styled scene, just the creature npc doing its thing passively in the background. Would be mighty helpful for testing. ps. Love your channel, keep up the awesome content.

Thank you so much ! I would be really grateful if you can teach how to rig mid to complex level facial rigging. or like how to use bone drivers to change a custom material property etc without having to go in shading mode every time.

5 minutes well spent Edit: Here's your change: 0:32

Thx this helped a lot

Thank you for this

There was some weird rotation on the leg bones after you rotated it to make the right leg, to make them face the right way select them all and hit shift n global Z axis (or global y axis depends). I may be overthinking it though but it could cause some problems if you try to add a pole target for the knees on this sort of rig.

great video!

love it learned new things
