Blender Quick Character Modeling, Skin Modifier

ReadMe.md

Basically take a quick line drawing in blender and thicken it up and then round it with a subdivision modifier.

Generate an armature modifier.

Apply the subdivision and skin modifier on a copy of the model, then reuse the armature from the original model.

From edit mode, use Ctrl-A to change the x/y thickness of a joint.
