Rig Scale Problem

Rig Scale Problem

Last time I fixed a quadruped rig's tail for scale, I scale constrained
the control boxes to the Global SRT and that did it. You might give it
a go.

Hope that helps.

I’m working on my first
full character rig. I am using
the Rig from guide with a few mods for my character. I have a Global
SRT null that
is a parent of my rig and geometry. The null is a child of the Model.
When I
try to scale down using the Global SRT null I get two problems. 
 
1) The tail I have
attached(“create tail” from
curve) does not scale.
 
2) The eyes scale double
the SRT null, so they are very
small if I scale the null down. The eyes are not enveloped but deformed
using a
lattice and the whole eye setup is constrained to a null in the rig
hierarchy.
