Rugrats – Chuckie playermodel
- Repositioned the finger bones by z-translating them for better alignment. Turns out when rigging fingers, you have to splice the meshes and view them diagonally in order to properly adjust them on the Z axis.
- Y-translated the upperarm and clavicle bones as well since I did not realize both of them were originally placed in the same position when I first made them.
- Capitalized the player name. Mainly focused on renaming the same name inside the LUA file from a previous PM I worked on.

“I have a bad feeling about this…”
Like I mentioned on my first Nicktoons playermodel, this is one of my secondary favorite shows, and I planned on getting to it later on.
Well… here he is.
Everyone’s favorite scaredy-cat himself: Charles Crandall Norbert "Chuckie" Finster Jr. — the cautious, nervous, but loyal best friend of Tommy Pickles.
This model took quite a while to put together since it’s high-poly, but I did the best I could to make it look as clean as possible (aside from some minor issues around the wrists and clavicles).
🔧 Features
- Playermodel
- Viewmodel Arms
- Jiggle Physics (Shoelaces)
⚠️ Notes
- I originally wanted to add jiggle physics to his hair, but rigging that properly would’ve taken way too long 😅
- I also wanted to include facial flexes, but that process is extremely tedious and not something I can do myself
If anyone is willing to help with facial flexes, I’d really appreciate it!
🎯 Extras / Thoughts
I don’t plan on making Tommy or the rest of the cast — Chuckie is my favorite, so he was my main focus.
That said, I’ve already started working on a secondary favorite of mine’s once while finishing this 👀
Because I heard this one Nickelodeon sports game, is getting ported from mobile to consoles and includes a Rugrats character, so I figured this would be a nice way to commemorate that.
🎉 Timing
Glad I managed to get this done in time for Rugrats’ 35th anniversary!
I’ve also heard about an upcoming live-action movie — curious to see how that turns out. Haven’t seen any trailers yet, so it’s probably still a ways off.
🔁 Usage
If you plan to:
- Port this model to other games (like VRChat)
- Edit it for use in other 3D programs
