Tutorial – Robot Eye Rig 1/2

In the first tutorial at Peculiar Motion, we will go over modeling a simple robotic eye, and rigging it for animation. Topics covered will be aperture shape, custom attributes, parenting vs. the parent constraint, simple IK, and grouping for animation.

Questions and comments are welcome!

    Thanks for the tutorial. I have just one question though…
    I’ve made the aperture blade and it works fine, but would I be able? to resize, rotate, and move the entire lot to fit where I want it to go? (I’m not using it for a robot eye, but somewhere else on the robot. The robot is already modelled and textured, but I can’t work out how I can move all instances without disrupting the set up.)
