Ik finger

hi there,

I am planing to make an animation about a man playing the violin. I just downloaded the malcolm rig a few days ago. It seems it does not have any IK for fingers. Does anyone have any suggestion for me in how I should animate the violin player's left hand fingers? i need to animate the character's finger pressing on the violin's string. (and hopefully can animate some vibrato motion) I am planning to use the male Malcolm rig

any suggestion or any help will be deeply appreciated.

thanks
bruce

Hi! There is no IK for the fingers.

It is not very common to need ik on fingers. You can always make an ik chain and constrain the finger fk controls to it.
