Watch as I rigg various controls to move my character’s leg bones. First I’ll explain the difference between a ikRPsolver and ikSCsolver (01:10), set a ‘preferred angle’ (01:43), add an ikRPsolver to the leg (02:00), attach the reverse foot (03:03), correct the reverse foot axis co-ordinates (05:00), create an arrow with the EP curve tool (07:20), add a foot roll attribute (09:35), create a ‘set driven key’ that key frames the foot roll (10:50), parent the arrows controls to the reverse feet (15:30) and create a pole vector to twist the kneas (17:08).
