Why this is: The cmo3 file is like liquid gold. As a rigging artist giving your cmo3 someone can: - reuse +mass reproduce your work file for other models or their own commissions. - Mass produce your file and profit off of your work - Take your techniques and your style - The credit will become confusing when a model that no longer looks like the original rig is still credited. Rigging is a technical art form. Most people don’t know the time and personal techniques that are put into models. A lot of big name rigging artists don’t show how reproduce their style because in rigging style is everything and what sets you apart. If someone gets a cmo3 and literally can reproduce all the rigging artists hard work spent on it. Even to the point of mass selling it on a larger scale or using it for their own commissions- the rigging artist is the only one who gets hurt. You pay for a cheeseburger at a restaurant but you don’t pay to know the recipe.
