Maybe I won't do that.

The very first time I use nCloth to do something it was meant for, I discover it's not so good at it.

There's a couple fixes I can think of. I'll either have to rig the armour attached to the body, or perhaps cheat it with a deformer. Either way, I'll have to re-rig her hands again anyway; I just discovered that her fingers won't move at the first joint, which makes sense considering how I rigged it, but it looks really strange.

Maya's FBIK solvers aren't totally solid either, but they do the job most of the time. Lips and eyelids I'm using spline deformers rather than blend shapes, and her tail is a IK spline solver. No problems there.

All dressed up in leather!

I think it needs something more. Grease and mud. And I need to fix the 'collar' too; it's a bit dull now.

Armour

I'm going to paint this up as well. I don't think this model is going to be brilliant, but it should be alright considering how many times I have (not) done this before.

Doodles

Just preparing to draw a decent avian character while I figure out how I want to finish off the lizard's armour.
