Character updates - Rhino in focus (Patreon)

Here's the pull out in action for the Rhino:

The quality of the deformation is heavily dependent on the topology. Because our characters were made before we invented the tech, unfortunately the topology isn't always the most optimal... But in this case with the Rhino, it happened to be really good. Others have varying degree of quality (determined by the limitations in their topology in the orifice area).
In the future, we will always plan our topology with this tech in mind, and can hopefully come to expect a result as good as this.
Here you can see the difference our new skinning tech does for the chest/belly area of the Rhino, when his spine bone is bent 45 degrees.

We're still not quite sure when 0.5.3 will be out. Updating all characters is a very time consuming effort, but we hope we will have something out around mid May. (Not a promise!)
