A quick thought on rigging.

Rigging 3d Models for animation is harder than actually modeling them- at least it seems that way to me. Starting over on rigging the Whalien. I'm going to make sure to do it right. I could probably get the animations I need with the clumsy rig I have so far, but I want a fancy one that makes it easier. Better to learn the correct habits now.

This is definitely a lot of work, but it's worth it.
