Hi all

I’m new on here, so bear with me…

I have had some trouble over the past few days with a model I created for a college project.

The model itself is ok, but when I created the armature and went into pose mode to move the models limbs about the following happens.

I have inverse kinematics applied to the lower bone in the legs and the bone in the hands, as the online tutorial specified.

I have also got sub division surface applied to the model.

Any help would be brilliant. I have also tried weight painting the model with the same effect.

I m a noob too and had the same prob … I was suggested to watch some tutorials on weight painting … U need it too

Post the blend file for immediate and accurate help. Make sure you have only one armature modifier. Make sure you painted the weights properly.

this is the before weight painting.

the model moves but leaves some vertices behind.

I must have deleted the weight painted version out of frustration :mad:

tried uploading earlier but here we go now…

I have attached the blender file above but can’t find the one I weight painted… I probably deleted it out of frustration.

Anyway, this is what I have now, the movement is their, but their are vertices moving with the armature for some reason.
