Probably the best explanation of a tutorial I’ve seen. Others literally smash through it like they really need to catch a bus. Well played!

[RogDolos]

More than 3 years later & still the most useful rigging tutorial on YouTube.

Just dropping in with this comment to show my appreciation for what you've provided here. Thank you.

Any more CG Geek refugees? Lmao.
This one is great, straight to the point, with proper explanations and without over complicating things for no real reason

"It does get weird of course, when you get a baby inside a baby." - Grant Abbitt


Awesome tutorial Grant! Exactly what us Blender noobs needed! Keep up the great work!!!

[PinccART]

Four months late, the only tutorial that really taught me anything for rigging. Watching the other channels with no script and 3 hours time to show much less not explaining anything just wanting to flex their blender skills.

I am a refugee from CG Geek's tutorial.

"its weird to have a baby inside a baby"
definitely

My animation turned out wayy better than I expected. Forward flip into an IronMan flying pose lolll. Thanks Grant. Sent you a coffee for this one.

[Lishtenbird]

This is the tutorial that inadvertently answered those specific rigging questions that no other rigging tutorial deemed important. Thank you.

[gutozardy]

5 minutes and I already realized this is the best Blender tutorial about rigging until now.

[shotrag]

Absolutely the most straight forward, no fluff, no BS approach to fundamental rigging in blender. Immense kudos to you Mr Abbitt. Truly, anyone who wants, or needs to make character rigging any harder than what is shown here, is a sociopath.

Quick tip: When you are using a model with a lot of vertices and it says;
then you should; (in edit mode)
Select all vertices.
Right-click and select “Merge Vertices”. From the new options displayed, click “by distance”.
then try to parent mesh with bones again. i hope it helps!

Omg bro you're the best teacher and your voice is so soft and its like henry cavill is talking me smootly at night... I love it

[mrsilverman]

Watched this 7 times already just cuz your voice is relaxing.

I doubt that you'll see this comment as this video is 2 yes old... I have just started my dive into 3d modelling and animation at the ripe age of 37.
Honestly your tutorials are amazing..
Nothing left unexplained or leaves me thinking "what did he just press.."
Thank you for your calm approach I will be a committed student 🙏 👍 🙂

[winniZX]

"Ctrl + A" You've just helped me solve an animation export error Ive been having for months. Thank you. Subbed

Dear Grant, this video is the best video on rigging a character i have seen so far. I watch others and they are way too fast for me to learn anything, making it all just a frustrating learning experience. With you, i can listen, see what you are doing, stop, get on blender, do the same as you did, and get back to the video for more info. This gave me the basic i need to experiment on my own, try stuff around and find learning Blender an actually FUN experience! Great Video!

[Krahkarq]

Like some others I finished the low poly tutorial thinking "rigging explained by Grant would be nice". Thank you so much for your outstanding work!

[happytimelogan]

Each step clear and not rushed.... hallelujah!

[marktaro]

This was a really great quick intro into character rigging and animation, something I thought was so hard but which you very clearly explained in 13 minutes. Thank you very much for the videos, Mr. Abbitt!
