Bishop 2.0

Animation Mentor announced an amazing upgrade to one of their flagship character animation rigs a few weeks ago at Siggraph. Appropriately dubbed Bishop 2.0, this is an amazing upgrade to an already amazing rig. The biggest and most welcome change is that it is almost infinitely and easily customizable. Now rather than placing multiple Bishops in the same scene with different surfacing I can create unique looks for each character in a scene. Thankfully AM has made it available to alumni along with current students! I downloaded it a few days ago and after jumping through a few hoops to get it working properly have have been spending a little time working with it. I've posted a quick render above of a little test setup I put together. I'm enjoying getting into the nitty gritty of things again. I may even do a little animation test with it...
