Locking foot/toe to the floor ... best way?

#1

Hi Guys [ once again ],

Looking at the IK section in the manual. Particularly the Leg and Foot tute. Seems quiet complex with alot of work and nulls to achieve proper foot movement and to prevent the foot going through the floor. If one had a simple skeleton with Thigh, lower leg, foot bones [ maybe a small toe bone too ] What would the best use of Nulls and IK to stop the foot from going through the floor? Null at top of thigh bone, IK Anchor on. Null at the ankle, foot bone using this as goal and calculate IK turned on … what next to keep the toe from dropping down through the floor?

A quick dummies guide to the simplest bone/null/ik structure for one leg possible?

Cheers
Aidan
