Rig character (Sid from Ice Age)

 I wanted to use Sid as a model because he has quite a range in mopvement and posture,plus i wanted a challenge. After watching Jon's tutorials i immeidately looked into the rigging process. I found the postioning of the hips and legs more difficult (mainly because there is so many elements to them).

Bowling ball

After exhausting attempts to render, i have finally got my bowling ball exercise up. I found this excerise easier than the original ball bouncem due to understanding more about the tools we use on Softimage. I did happen to fall fowl of adding too many frames (especially in the mini bounce the bowling ball has) but due to the sheer weight of a bowling ball, the bounce was only slight.
