Minor: Body Rig

I have completed the body rig for my character. I had to redo the pose space deformers due to a mistake I made, but they are working now.

It took me a little while to work out the IK set up for the individual toes, but I think I have got it working well, and I've also added channels on the foot controls for Toe Curl and Spread.

Minor: Skinning Progress

I have begun skinning my character. I have built a ribbon spine and a skeleton, and bound the mesh. I have completed the initial weight grouping and blended the upper body. I have included a video of my progress on the upper body. I am happy with it but plan to come back to it with fresh eyes and see if I need to do more blending.

As I have modelled individual toes, I have built a joint chain for them similar to the fingers. I decided to use one less joint for the toes than fingers, as this fits the amount of geometry in them and I won't need as much detailed movement in the feet as in the hands.
