Easy to assume rigging tools are for characters so great to see how useful they are in other scenarios. This technique will help me with a project I’m working on 🙏

Great tutorial!! Question: What else needs to be done if you have thickness in your object?

[NaderTaghinia]

Very useful. A while back I was trying to achieve the same result using point level animation. It wasn't easy! Thank you :)

Thank you so much for this great tutorial Mr.Noseman! How about the flaps of the boxer when rigging a packaging box?
Thank you ❤

Hi Great Tutorial! Thanks
How can we add thickness and 2 sided texture to this object ?
Can you please help?
I tried adding cloth surface with thickness but when texture applied the texture gets mirrored to both the side.
I also tried side opts for front and back but it didn't work.
any tips on this?

How to see the weight on the polygon? if I use select mode it won't appear.
but if I use weight tool it's appear, but I can't select the points if using weight tool.
kinda need help here, thanks!

But how to properly give it thickness? So that the texture doesn’t jump around later and everything looks right.
