Rigg fully completed and getting ready for animating! (Last checks)

I have completed the Rigg for the Mountain King. I can even switch between the four different views, using just one file! Skinning and rigging all the sides was a long and hard process but totally worth it in the end. I feel more confident working in Maya and am starting to trust my own abilities more.

Before I start animating there are a couple of things that need a fix. For example when I move the arms in the front and back view, the shoulders planes detach a bit from the top half of the body. I don't want this to spoil the illusion, so I will get help with this. I also need to clean up my 'source images' folder to get rid of everything I'm not using. Once these final fixes are done I should be able to start animating!
