Humanoid Rig
Some ways to Rig a Human Body
You can always Rig a character on Your own to experiment with bone constraints.
​But Blender Human (Meta-Rig) is very friendly and easy to use.
Though Mixamo is a life-saver here.
(Still, finger control is less attractive than (Meta-Rig) and no face rig).
upload your character (FBX, OBJ, ZIP)
Set it up and download it with any animation included
(You can remove animation and reset pose later)
Download and install an addon for blender:
Imporot animation back to Blender
And inside Blender You'll see Mixamo tab - Zero Out Rig and Create Control Rig
And the best combo is using both!
After done the mixamo part, You have a decant rig, just add (Meta-Rig),
remove the bones that don't belong to face, join both together and apply weights.
Make main face bone follow mixamo head bone.
make sure You have correct positins, rotations, scales before combining rigs.
Hope that was helpful!
