Hi,

What are the ways to do a reverse leg rig?
I got an initial skeleton with a single IK, but I need 2 more IKs for the “tibia_l” and “metatarsal_l” bones.
Not sure how to parent those properly, or maybe there is a better way.

Thanks

Greetings!

I had a go at your scene and came up with a set up for the reverse leg. I made a simple HDA out of it so you can easily use it for both back legs. Let me know if you have any questions!

Cheers!
