WEEK 1
SKELETON
Make a skeleton of the model and parent it to the model.
Creating half skeleton of the model
mirror skeleton
Whole skeleton
skeleton with model
The skeleton is not complicated to make and the production speed is also very fast. Rigging is a completely new thing for me. After finishing it, I feel a sense of satisfaction when I see the model can follow the skeleton to make simple movements.
WEEK 2
SKINNING
Skinning is a job that requires patience. It requires repeated observation and confirmation that there will be no abruptness or misalignment in the model during animation in order to perfect the model's rig.
match the skeleton with the model
legs
shoes
hands
finger
match each finger to the model
The skinning part is quiet boring while doing it, but after each time finish a part of a skinning will also feel kind of proud about it. I was enjoy it while I doing it.
 I was parent the skeleton of the arm wrong, and I didn't realize until I doing the skinning . I was check it not so serious, this should be more patient while I doing it. I need to check all of my model and skinning after I doing it.

Rigging is a new attempt for me. I made several mistakes in skinning due to carelessness during the production process. It is a task that requires a lot of patience. After the production, I was very satisfied to see that the model can move smoothly. This is a very beneficial learning experience.
WEEK 8
Starting Challenge 2 Option A : DUDE
For challenge 2, I choose to do another biped model. I choose the Dude. It is a strong man with muscles, which is completely different body type from the male body model taught before.
