This flail is completely rigged and ready for animation. It's style is based on a real medieval flail. It would look very good in the hands of any D&D style character.

Materials are MiaMaterial, so if you wish to render with something other than Mental Ray you will need to swap the materials out for different ones.

This rig contains 11 joints with controllers to animate on.
It is FK and is easily animated by rotating the controllers. FBX format does not include controllers, but is joints with skin. Skin is smooth bind.

See 'supporting items' video for animation example. Animation is not included.
