[New Tutorial] Rigging Robots in Blender 🤖



Hey Reader,

Zach here,

I'm excited to share that we just published a new free Blender rigging tutorial from our talented instructor Louis du Mont, creator of our ​Robotic Planet course​.

For this tutorial, you'll learn how to effectively rig a very funny robot in Blender, which we named "JokeBot9000".

More specifically, you'll learn how to:

  • Use armatures (bones) for hard-surface objects
  • Automate animation with drivers and custom properties
  • Create a waveform display for the robot's mouth

​
BTW. this tutorial can be a great help for our current running Robotic Wildlife 3D Animation Challenge.

For this, we challenge you to create a 3D robotic animal, that lives in a natural environment. And since this is an animation challenge, you also have to rig and animate your robots.

So hopefully this video comes in handy!

​Learn more about the challenge here​

​
Have fun!

~Zach
