Free Character Rig: Otto

  Published by brian on January 4th, 2007 in Repositories

otto_th.jpgThey just keep popping up everywhere. Another new character rig is now available. Otto is the name of the rig and its based on the techniques demonstrated at the Blender conference.

One of the most impressive stretch rigs out there. Includes facial controls. Definitely worth taking a good detailed look at to see how everything is done. Otto has also been added to the list of character rigs we provided recently, which you can find here.

    "They just keep popping up everywhere."
    Yeah, and we don't mind at all :). However it would be very cool to see a more realistic human rig some day.

    Weird link.
    It's released under CC2.5 attribution "by", but it doesn't say anywhere who made it.

    Hi, Joeri.

    I´m sorry for that. This is now corrected… =D

    I´ve put the page online, but I was giving more attention to the blenderartists thread. =/

    Thanks for posting Otto here! If anyone have doubts or suggestions, just tell me.

    Cheers!

    Realistic human? I think the original mancandy was pretty close to that. What are you looking for specifically? Model and all?

    @Brian

    Well i find it difficult to make really good joint deformation on realistic human limbs. All the models up till now seem to be rather stick figure-like, don't get me wrong i really appreciate all the work put into them. But there aren't any really realistic head and body rigs out there.

    as soon as we get a python script for makehuman to transfer rigs with shapes to blender…that'll be the day!

    mpl: my sentiments as well: almost all animateable characters/rigs have thin limbs to work around the problem of pinching. I too would like to see a nice, normal limbed character.

    But nonetheless the rigs themselves are really worth it, thanks to the contributions!
