Lazy Tutorial - Easy IK Rigging in Blender

okay uh ik rigging it's it's really straightforward so you add your armature and extrude your mech leg or whatever and add the control bone in pose mode select the control bone then shift click on the bone you want to control hit shift i and you've got your ik constraint it's it's that easy if you go into edit mode you could then parent like other ik chains to that chain just be sure you limit the chain distance in the settings or you'll end up with like a dependency loop it's a great way to make stuff look complex with very little rigging knowledge actually if you're doing robotics or whatever you can lock certain axes for certain bones and tweak the stiffness which gives you some great control and you might be thinking man i really wish i could make this bone do this specific thing and well that's when you start getting into all these other constraints so if you don't know rigging basics ik is a great way to get into it
