Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

Rigging a gun holster
I used bones to connect all of the objects, about 6 bones inside the leather strap, a bone for the metal clasp, and a bone for the holster. I used an IK solution for the bones so that the leather strap deforms properly. Then I went ahead and parent constrained the IK to the leg, I went ahead and turned off some of the translations on the parent. That in turn allows the leg to move forward and not move the holster. But with that setup I don’t get realistic movement, I get some movement and I can keyframe the rest to make it look okay but I would like it to be more dynamic. I have also played around with some rigid bodies but haven’t gotten any results with that.
Has anyone done a scabbard for a sword that moves with the character, if so that solution would maybe help? If anyone has an idea on how to rig that properly that would be great. Thanks in advance.
