Biscuits and Davey writes: You asked for it so here it is! This one includes a few modeling tips all the way up to skinning and weighting the box with a joint system. There are so many attributes to the character tools but I figure this is a great start for anyone wanting to learn a few basics and get started. If you have any trouble, especially when it comes to weighting the vertices of the box, let us know in the comments.
