Fax on Blender has written an in-depth review of CMIVFX’s Massive Mammoth Masterclass on Rigging.
From the review:
As promised here is a review of CMIVFX’s Massive Mammoth Masterclass on Rigging, by Nathan Vegdahl (I’m linking to a presentation video because there is no product page on CMIVFX for the bundle. You’ll find links to Volumes 1 and 2 on the video description).
Well… it is awesome. No really, it is. I’m beginning to wonder if there’s anything short of awesome in Blender education out there. Either there isn’t or all my homework picking the products really pays off ;)

I just bought this. I am only a few minutes into watching but it is already evident that it's worth every penny! Nathan is, without doubt, one of the rigging gurus for Blender.

wow never thought that blender tutors would ever buy 3d training.
hope you learn a lot Jonathan so u can teach us better.
@axel,
Of course! Even though I am a tutor, I don't know everything :) Rigging in particular is not my strong suit, not when compared to Nathan at least!

You will find that almost all good blender tutors watch out for training material that is out there, and most of them probably buy the books /dvds even if they feel they are competent with blender.
I bought this a while ago and I have to agree with Jonathan.
I especially enjoyed the skinning process. The workflow described was new to me, but really helpfull IMO.
(I consider myself somewhere between noob and intermidiate when it comes to rigging.)
@Jonathan:
I love your attitude of always being willing to learn more. That is the path to becoming a true master !
Wow, that sounded kind of zen :)
@pjoe,
Ha thank you, I like zen ;)
Hmmm...
(reaches for wallet)
Nice one Nathan! You're a legend mate!
Hurrah! Nathan Vegdahl!!! That's amazing!!!
