Not bad! One small point - weight painting is vertex based, so knowing that makes it a little easier. With the main body being a cube - all you gotta do is aim for the corners. 😃
For something like this, I'd just select the entire cube in weight paint and hit shift + k to just paint the whole thing. Covers all surfaces of the faces selected with bleeding over so the mesh doesn't have speration during movements
@@TheInnerWorlds i did this the following way with weight painting so the square streched and squashed. I gave eash bone a bit of the square. Like the shoulder blades moved the top part of the square and the hips the lower while the spine bone moved the middle part. I tried painting the whole square but I found during the animation it was lacking the strecth and squash i liked.
This video is a bit older but for amatuer not outdated yet! Weight painting is to cover vertices with weights. But if you want to cover the whole cube with weight of 1.0 just selct its vertices in edit mode, goto data tab, choose the right vertex group, adjust the weight factor to 1.0 and ASSIGN. No need to mess around with painting, brush sizes and so on ...
great stuff mate. all other tutorials I saw were unnecessarily complex like animating really complex stuff and I couldn't make head or tail of it. this just teaches bare bones and now its super clear for me. appreciate the work
This is the best rigging tutorial out there, it really helped. Tip: if you have already made a different character from a modelling tutorial you probably won't have to do the weight paint part.
If you're having issues with inserting keyframes make sure your mouse cursor is over your armature when you press I, or you won't see all the options you need Awesome video, probably the most concise and clear I've seen on rigging simple character so far - thank you!
@Ozba11s@chez what do you mean what buttons? Not trying to be annoying, I guess if I understand specifically what's not working i can try to help better
Hello, when I grab the spine in pose mode and try to move it, it only grabs the top part of the body ( @ 8:39 in the video) leaving the hips and bottom half seperate from it. Do you know what I could have done wrong? I re-watched the vid and re-did the rig multiple times but i cant seem to fix the issue.
8:38 When I move the bone in the body, the arms move but the legs remain still. I have gone through the entire tutorial three times, but the results are still the same. Does anyone know what I might have done wrong?
This is my 1st attempt at rigging and animation... So, with your tutorial, I rigged and animated my 1st basic block human model... I am happy... Now I can rig and animate my rubber ducky character... Thanks for sharing...
THANK YOU, I'VE BEEN TRYING TO FIND HOW TO AUTOMATIC WEIGHT THING TO MOVE THE CHARACTER FOR SO LONG AND YOU FINNALY EXPLAINED IT TO ME IN AN WAY I UNDERSTOOD :D
Hi, great video but one question. At 5:28 when you're extruding from the spine, you're extruding from the head. Unless I'm missing something, the extruded bone is not parented in the same way the arms bones are. I know that's because heads can't parent heads. As a result when I move the spine around it doesn't effect the hip. My question is why doesn't yours have that issue? Thanks for the help!
@Poly Flo Thank you for this great video. I've only one issue that the spine bone does not connect with legs. Although I did exactly the same by clicking bottom dot of the spine bone and then extruded legs accordingly. But when I click the spine bone and move, it only moves arms with it while legs stay there. Please advise what could be wrong? Thanks in advance.
@@poly_flo Yep I exactly followed the video. In Edit Mode it works fine but in Post Mode, the "root" of spine bone does not connect with the "tips" of left and right hip bones. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks man, this really helps coz it uses very simple example cubeman. Previously I was learning from video that uses complex examples like human, octopus object but it was really confusing for beginner. This video enabled me to understand the basic and successfully animate in pose mode.
Thank you this got me going! The auto-weights for me were the hardest part. They were going nutso. It was one of 2 things I think. A) I did not have the transforms applied on the CubeMan mesh prior to parenting the rig. B) I had a lot of overlap in the arms/legs and the main body. Apparently that causes issues with auto-weighting according to this one lone post I read somewhere.
i got this little problem. The spine bone just wont connect to the hip. When i move the spine the hip just doesnt want to move. im on 3.4 btw. if anyonw got a solution it would be more than welcome
I've done everything with a body more complex, and now that i'm moving the armature the body doesn't move, can someone explain me why or the what could be the problem?
When iam in object mode @8:50 ~ and i select my armature and my object with shift + Left and than switch to weightpaint mode i can't see my armature anymore. Just see my object in blue, how can i fix that?
8:12 minutes am stuck ....where to set parent to automatic weight .... because it doesn't show that option after Clicking Ctrl + P..... should i say it's only Version 3.1.2 that show that option ???
Select the object and the armature in this order; mesh, then armature. The armature must be the active object to get the options you are looking for. You have the mesh as the active object. (lighter orange color is the active object)
Hey , thank you so much, the video is amazing. I just have one error. At time stamp 8:42, when you move the spine bone and all the bones move with it, even the ones extruded from it's lower vertex, mine only move the top bone ( The arm bones shoulder.l, upperarm.l, lowerar.l and its symmetry.r ) The lower part does not get affected. I have done some research and it says that, when you use an armature in blender, the top vertex extrudes bones that become a child to the parent bone but from the bottom vertex, it extrudes a new bone separate from the parent bone. Is there something that you did, that allowed the extrusion of the hip.l and its symmetry.r bone be connected to the one of the spine?
I actually got the answer form one of the comments, Try clicking the hip bone, go into edit mode. On the bone properties section, scroll down to relations. Set the parent relation to bone (the spine) for both hips. Go back to pose mode and move the spine
thank you for this tutor, it was very useful. For others i would like to tell my problem: after extrude legs didnt move with other bones. it can be fixed by adding parent (bone properties> relations> parent)
With the newer version of blender, the hip wont connect to the spine, thus the upper body separates. The bones have changed so that you can only extrude from the tip of the bone, and not the root (the connection between hip and upper leg). To correct this, (edit mode), select upper leg, then (shift) select the spine bone. Ctrl P. to parent and keep offset. Repeat for other leg.
What is it you’re doing/saying at around 03:40? Press ctrl and R and scroll the middle mouse wheel? I try that but all it does for me is zooms in and out. I’m in edit mode. But just can’t figure out what you’re doing at that point?
hmm maybe your settings are different for the external mouse. If you can't do that for loop cuts, you can try just creating the loop cut, then the bottom left corner on the screen manually change the number of cuts before you click off because after you click off that option disappears and you have to restart and create a new loop cut again to see that menu
@@poly_flo yeah I notice I have less options going up the left side of the screen in edit mode than what you show. I can’t even find the option for loop cuts to do it manually. I have the latest blender 3.2 I think it is
@@bleachedsmiles5570 hmm try to search loop cuts on youtube and you should see in depth vids showing how those work, not sure why your blender isn't showing the other options so hard to know the issue
@@poly_flo I found out what the problem was. I must have just selected ‘cube man’ whilst in edit…I found I needed to go back to object mode first - select ‘cube man’…then go into edit. Then I had all the options available and was able to make the loop cuts as you did in the video. Now the only persistent problem I have is for some reason mirroring doesn’t work. when I’ve an arm selected, add mirror, click on the icon and the click the cube body, nothing happens. Yet if I click on the arm I’ve selected it creates another arm by the side of it - very odd. Also, for some reason symmetrise isn’t working right for me. I label all my bones. Selected all of them with A. Hit symmetrise and it creates the opposite side…only it always places it over the side I already have. It labels everything correctly (replacing left with right) but just overlays my left set of ‘bones’…so I have to manually move them.
@@bleachedsmiles5570 hmm for the symmetrize one maybe reset your transforms first and then try it because maybe the angle or rotation is off and that might affect it. Also, just confirm your naminng is leg.l so the .l after is the important part you can name it whatever you want but as long as you have it .l after
I added amature and mesh as automatic weights in blender. then i made some poses in pose mode. but when i click somewhere else after selecting the mesh, the mesh comes into its initial position. how can i avoid that ?
At 10:29 I did not get the Insert Keyframe Menu. I had accidentally turned on automatic keying set. To turn this off click "Keying" drop down menu at the top of the playback window (to the right of the clock icon) and clear Active Keying Set.
When I tried mine, the arm didn’t stay like It was supposed to. I put an arm into 3/3 and moved the one to the right but the entire arm moved leaving the bones behind. It started breaking and twisting and I have 0 clue what option alt r alt means so I couldn’t reset the character and now I have to redo It for the 4th time
try watching my newer video with the red guy in the thumbnail, that might be easier to follow. Also, to reset the pose, you have to be in pose mode first, then select all of the mesh by pressing "a", then press "alt r" to reset rotations and "alt g" for movement

Quick tip to those who found that Alt + R doesn't work. It probably has to do with your Nvidia Overlay taking over that command. Go to Geforce experience -> Settings -> Turn off overlay. Or, if you still want the overlay, edit the hotkeys and replace Alt + R hotkey with, say, for example, Alt + P. This should now work.
really cool and easy to understand but I have a problem when I render I choose render animation and it goes 1 frames for 3 seconds its so slow and forces my computer a lot how can I fix this ?
I did it exactly like in the tutorial but when I try to move the (spinal)bone (as 8:42) the legs don't move along, only the upper body. Can anyone advise/help?
Probably your leg bone is not connected to the spinal bone. In edit mode try click leg bone and shift click spinal bone then press Ctrl + P, choose "Keep Offset", the leg bone thus be the child of the spinal bone

Quick tip to those who found that Alt + R doesn't work. It probably has to do with your Nvidia Overlay taking over that command. Go to Geforce experience -> Settings -> Turn off overlay. Or, if you still want the overlay, edit the hotkeys and replace Alt + R hotkey with, say, for example, Alt + P. This should now work.
