Character Rigging

I have just finished placing the bones/joints for my character and waiting on a second opinion before I begin the skinning process, I’d like to make sure things are in right order as in past judgments the skeleton has appeared wrong. Time wise - it hasn’t taken to long and hasn’t been a great deal of stress, so therefore welcome any corrections. I believe this has been a result from having the right preparation from the off set i.e. the study of the anatomy allowing instance knowledge of my naming conventions.
I am tackling each character one at a time, so here we have my attempts of creating the bones/joints in accordance to the skeletons featured in earlier studies of the bear and hound. Next I’ll look to skinning if correct and begin work on my bird.

well done Raj - keep at it matey - your making of book looks a treat and I can't wait to see your shadow beasts come alive and start stalking that staircase. Keep on with it, don't lose heart, don't lose steam - keep your eye on the prize!

Yeah me neither :D thanks for your help, I have one more question for you just to confirm do you have the open dates to go into uni? I noted 20th to 24th

Hey Raj, basically, the uni is open tomorrow, and wednesday and thursday, but students who want to work need to fill out one of those forms at reception; that said, you should keep your eye on the website re. snow and closures, because today we got kicked out at 3.30. I won't be in tomorrow, because I'm marking essays, but I'm assuming Alan will be - I suggest you email him to confirm.

Okay thanks for that, I’m waiting on a reply for some feedback on my rigs so I’m sure Alan will get back to me soon.
