Dwemer Sphere Rig
Role
Rigger
Key Features
Fully articulated mechanical rig with independent component control
Constraint-based system for structured mechanical movement
Procedural wheel rotation driven by MEL expressions
Expression-driven body vibration for secondary motion
Transformable structure with folding and unfolding components
Animator-friendly control setup for complex mechanical motion
Tools Used
Maya | MEL
A mechanical character rig inspired by a Dwemer Sphere design from Elder Scrolls, built in Maya with a focus on constraint-based systems and procedural motion. The rig allows full articulation of all mechanical components and incorporates MEL expressions to automate wheel rotation and secondary vibration, reducing manual animation overhead.
