Requirements
Blender 4.0–5.2 with Blender’s built-in Rigify add-on.
Who It Is For
Character artists, hard-surface artists, concept artists, indie developers, and anyone working with mechanical characters.
Facing Direction
Choose how the character is oriented before guide placement.
Rig Stages
Build the skeleton first, then generate animation controls.
Does SimpleSkelly work for quadrupeds?
Yes. SimpleSkelly supports guide-based biped and quadruped setup with a selectable facing direction.
Can I rig mechanical characters?
Yes. Mecha Bind connects separate rigid objects to their closest bones for robots, armour, and modular assemblies.
Can I use an existing armature?
Yes. Custom Rig builds clean controls and IK over an existing humanoid armature while preserving the original deformation skeleton.
What Blender versions are supported?
SimpleSkelly supports Blender 4.0 through 5.2 and uses Blender’s built-in Rigify add-on.
Is the generated rig editable?
Yes. The output is Blender-native, so the important skeleton and control-rig stages remain visible and editable.
Who is SimpleSkelly for?
It is built for character artists, hard-surface artists, concept artists, indie developers, and anyone rigging mechanical characters.
Where do I buy it?
SimpleSkelly 1.0 is available on Superhive through LumiTools.
Does it require a separate application?
No. SimpleSkelly runs inside Blender and uses Blender’s built-in Rigify add-on.
SimpleSkelly keeps the rigging workflow practical, visible, and ready to refine in Blender.
