First thanks for the help,

i'm making my first animation of a character (woodman) and i don't know how to make the skining, i've already made the skeleton but when i try to make the skining process using smooth bin or rigid bind, i got skin deformations but this character is made of wood like a robot, i want to know wich is the best way to make the union (skining) of the skeleton of the articulated character like a robot.

sorry for my english, is not my language, and thanks for your guidelines
