The ninja's a project that I'd wanted to do for some time, ever since I did an illustration for my university, but had never gotten around to it. I realized that he would be an excellent chance to test several of the new things I'd been learning about rigging. He is by far my most complex rig I've produced and the one I'm happiest with. He incorporates stretchy limbs, sword manipulation controls, soft body controls and ik/fk switching controls. One of the things that makes me the happiest with this rig is that I've incorporated ways of turning on and off all the extras so that animators can choose to work with the automation or not, depending on what a scene requires.
