Anyone know anything about Blender?

[Toffeewhirl]

My DS is trying to rig a character on Blender, but when he moves the rig the mesh doesn't follow. He has Googled the problem, but can't find any solution.

(He thinks I'm mad to ask on Mumsnet and I'd love to prove him wrong).

DS10 says that he has to pair the rig with the mesh. Select the character and the bones by holding shift and left clicking on both objects. Then left click and a pop up should appear that says “pair to armature”.

Hope that helps - I haven’t a clue what any of what I’ve written means

Thank you and please thank your son. I will pass the message on!
