Wing Rig System Breakdown

First of all, shout out to Steve's video, from which I gained the knowledge to create this (link: • wingRigBreakdown ).
This video is the breakdown of how I did the wing rig system for the Feathered Seprent from the game "Sycle".

First , it is really generous of you sharing technique for such complex thing : Wings, thank you so much . i Have Qs though: -how performance is with too many layers of feathers using spline IK ? -How about folding ? ...

Hi, thank you! I would like to point out that I did that 2 years ago and currently I am not doing rigging stuff anymore; plus I took the knowledge from the video in the description, maybe there you can find your answers. Sorry for not being that helpful...

@@michelepasserino9531 Oh , thank you so much .Sad you left rigging , But really wish you the best with what you are doing now .Your video and answer are very useful indeed , thanks again .

Final red joints make me confuse is that driven joints or feather skinned joints

[@michelepasserino9531]

If you mean those on the actual feathered serpent rig I show at the end, those red joints are the feather skinned joints, which are parent constrained by the driven joints of the wing system (green joints).

@@michelepasserino9531 got it so ik handle we should apply into green joints right
