My real-life 3D rig was always female

My experience can be summarized like this:

Imagine a female rig in a male 3D model and you've always moved a female rig, but you didnt realize that you don't actually know how a male one works or moves - you just assumed it was your regular, male rig!

When I realized it, my brain was blown. That's why my voice sounds funny! That's why I have been behaving a bit like a woman sometimes and moving around like one! This is actually insane...

Maya - Body Mapping

In Maya, I have been building a character using tutorial videos to help guide me through step by step. Our lecturer, Mark, had given us this task to do so we can learn for ourselves how to create a character for our future animation projects to come.

For fun, I have thought of a different method to build a body, where as Mark had designed his as a male character and I have made mine as a female character. Hopefully, because I learned how to make a female designed character, I would get the highest mark in the lecture.

Step 1

Build the body using a cylinder shape as the centre point of where you should start with. There are two videos about the body building method, but the second video is just about putting in the details which will make the character look nicely neat. Click Here to see the first video and Click Here to see the second video.

Step 2

Build the hands and feet to make the character able to walk and grab onto things. Click Here to see the video.

Step 3

Build the head of the character. This one is interesting because we had to make him with only one eye in the middle. Click Here to see the video.
