Minion Rig

Hello everyone! Some time ago, my friend, colleague, and animator Alexey Medvedev (LinkedIn) started creating an animation for a competition, and I decided to help him by rigging a Minion from the well-known cartoon. It was an interesting collaborative effort, and I gained a lot of valuable experience from this work, and as we all know, experience is important. Additionally, Alexey created a picker for the rig. Thank you very much!

First of all, I want to mention that I took the Minion model from here - Minion Model
I adapted it, made significant modifications, and created a rig based on Advanced Skeleton with additional tweaks.

I also want to thank Maxim Poklonov (LinkedIn) for his setups for the eyelids and eyeball:
EyeLids Auto Rig
EyeBall Auto Rig
In my opinion, this is the most advanced solution for automating eye rigging.
DWPicker can be downloaded here: DWPicker
Autodesk Maya 2020 and above.
I hope this Minion rig will help animators create amazing animations.
