About this gig
Need your 3D character ready for posing or animation?
I create character rigs and blendshapes for existing 3D characters, helping you prepare your model for posing, simple animation, games, presentations or marketing content.
This gig is for clients who already have a 3D character model and need it to move properly.
This gig can include:
- 3D character rigging
- Skinning / weight painting
- Basic animation-ready controls
- Pose-ready character setup
- Facial blendshapes / shapekeys
- Face rig
- Rig cleanup or adjustment
- Blender source file delivery if needed
The goal is to make your character easier to pose, animate and use in production, while keeping the setup clean and practical.
Please note: this gig does NOT include full character modeling from scratch. If you also need the character modeled, that can be handled separately through my character modeling gig.
Please contact me before ordering so I can check your model topology, file format and rigging requirements before recommending the best package.

FAQ
Do you create the 3D character in this gig?
No. This gig is focused on rigging and blendshapes for an existing 3D character. If you also need the character modeled, that can be handled separately through my character modeling gig.
What is included in the rigging?
Depending on the package, I can create a body rig, face rig, basic controls, skinning / weight painting, pose-ready setup and animation-ready preparation.
Do you create facial expressions?
Yes, facial expressions can be created through blendshapes / shape keys in the Premium package or as an extra.
Is the character ready for animation after rigging?
Yes, the goal is to prepare the character for posing or simple animation. More complex production rigs should be discussed before ordering.
Can you rig any 3D model?
Not always. The model needs to have suitable topology and structure for rigging. Please send the file before ordering so I can check it.
What file formats do you accept?
I mainly work in Blender. .blend files are preferred, but I can also review .fbx, .obj, .glb, .usd files depending on the project
Do you fix bad topology?
Small cleanup can be discussed, but major topology fixes or retopology are not included by default and may require a custom quote.
Can you animate the character too?
Yes. After the rigging stage, simple animations can be handled separately through my 3D character animation gig.
Do you provide game engine-ready rigs?
Exports for Unity / Unreal-specific setup or advanced game-ready requirements should be discussed before ordering
