This is my first rig attempt I am making for an application video. My entire project rests on this rig working, so any help is saving my life.
The rig works pretty well as far as I can tell, but when I bind it to the geometry, the geo gets seriously deformed when I move any of my goals. I am thinking this might be because my geometry is not a single object(I stitched my hands and arms to my body but they are still separate objects). I honestly don’t know what went wrong or have any idea of how to fix it. I will attach my file, I’m desperate so please send any solutions my way.
Before I bind:

After I bind:

Everything about the bind seems bad to me. Here are a few of my concerns:
Should I not IK chain my fingers separately?
Did I do something wrong with my subdivisions?
Do I need to restitch?
And finally should I abandon this model or is it salvagable?
