Jumped on the transformers bandwagon.. but I dont know anything about rigging.
I didnt think a skeleton would work because the joints need to move like hinges.
So, parented the foot to a cylinder, the same cylinder to the shin which is parented to another cylinder.. and so on. So I can control the joints by rotating the cylinders.

This is what i got so far..

1. How can I improve what I have or should start again?
2. If so, is there a better way to do this?
3. Do you understand anything I just said?

Cheers Djim
