Wisemen figurines acting

For this "wisemen acting animation" i rig and animate the three characters.
For the first time we use at Akama studio my new the "Picker" interface on production.
Picker is very usefull to :
- select the character controls,
- switch arms ik/fk and keep the pose of the arms.
- reset the characters controls
- do the symmetry of arms or leg poses
- copy and paste poses

Final result is here CADEAU ROYAL

In the same time I continue to develop my maxscript interfaces "Picker" and "Rig Creator", these allow me to create characters rigs more faster on 3dsmax.
