haha! im only kidding, im just testing out a rig benny to see what joints are and arent needed/there placement etc. Being a fat waddler, bennys influences will need to be zeroed out in a lot of places otherwise the following happens. This trial includes a floating knee joint and IK handle for the up and down...reverse foot is gonna be needed on top of this so the waddle can happen. after removing influence from benny's body...couple mins work = maaaaajjor improvements :)
for bennys rig, im looking very closely at the work Studio A.K.A did on their penguin who has a lot of similarities to our character....fat little waddler with floating feet. Ive been watching a few walk cycles to see the placements of the joints a bit better...well...its guess work but you know!

penguin walk cycle: when watching this, the actual characters foot passes through the bottom of the body
this allows the rig to have some extreme capabilities such as the stretch in image 2. Image 4 shows the feet as their floating elements, it gives charm to the character though.
...its always best to think a few steps ahead, this will certainly help me with my rig plan
