Description Alright, like I said, just cause I had a lot of questions about it, here's a tutorial about rigging paperchildren to stand on their own.

If you have any questions, drop me a line!


All of the above paperchildren can be found in my gallery in the paperchildren folder.


[EDIT] Holy cow, a Daily Deviation?

Thank you guys so much! ; u ; <3
I'm glad I can give back to all of you like this, again, thanks! <3

I found your tutorial from your Toothless rig!
What a great idea! I'll have to try it some time!

Do you use regular printer paper or do you use cardstock for your paperchildren? 
I imagine that cardstock is better
