5.1 Conclusion

So with that last video we`ve come to the end of the how to rig a rubber hose character for animation course. In this course you`ve successfully learned how to rig a rubber hose 3D character using splines. We've also learned how to create movement points for our character, and how to visualize them using colored icons. I hope you've learned a lot in the demos and that you can apply these skills to your own workflows. I hope that you've learned some new things that you haven't seen before in Cinema4D that will aid you in completing your future animation projects. I had a lot of fun creating these character rigs, so thanks for watching. Good luck creating your own rubber hose character animations, and I'll see you next time on Tuts+.
