Learning to use another rig

This was more challenging than I thought it probably didn't help that the character had 8 legs to animate. Once I was accustomed to animating my character I then of course had to get used to animating my partners. The biggest thing that required practice was the leg IK's I found them quite hard to select and you need to move them in conjunction with the locators for the knees. I kept a lot of the motion a bit simpler for the spider such as jumping and lurching back. This saved a lot of effort trying to learn a walk cycle that wasn't really needed. I was happy with the animation that I've been doing with the spider I feel it works well in conjunction with the worm however plenty of practice is needed.
