Yeah sometimes it is best not to go with tutorials. Go with an idea. Make it the best you can and then add to it. I didn't use any tutorials and in less then a couple hours my Alex rig was complete. I didn't count the time in between when I worked cause I didn't do anything with mineimator in like a week or two. And I will be honest with you. This is one of the best rigs out of people who say " First Rig ".
