Inline-4 Engine Modelling & Rigging Study

This was my most technically challenging project to date, focused on modelling and rigging the core components of an inline-four engine. The pistons, crankshaft and connecting rods were modelled with attention to proportion and alignment, then rigged using constraints and parenting so their motion behaved correctly relative to one another. The project was developed through iteration, refining timing and mechanical relationships to achieve consistent, believable motion.
