ENVELOPES - help me please

[(o)ne]

Hi All!

Well, I creating this character (not completed yet) for animation, but I can't tune the SKIN->Envelopes to work right! You know, mesh overlaps etc.

Maybe there are some tutorials about correct skinning or can you share your working envelope samples of a male body?

adjusting the envelopes is a good place to start but you will also need to paint the vertex wieghts if you want to make it work properly.

good luck
