Ghost Rider Rig

Ghost Rider Rig by Emilio Serrano

Ghost Biker is a free Ghost Rider rig for Maya by Emilio Serrano, a tongue-in-cheek take on the comic: a lanky teenage rider with a flaming skull, punk jacket and punk hair, riding a BMX. The mGear rig ships with a fully rigged bike and a custom AnimPicker for the character, the bike and extras, so mounted and dismounted shots work in one scene.

Ghost Rider Rig is out

Everything the rig ships with. What you get on day one:

Rider and bike together

The BMX has full animation controls, so it can be a vehicle, a prop or a storytelling beat of its own.

One picker for everything

A custom AnimPicker with dedicated controls for the body, the bike and the extras.

Model by Javier González Barreiro

Flaming skull, punk styling and a lanky silhouette that is the opposite of the original character.

Long limbs, strong poses

His proportions push dynamic action poses, and the mGear guide is included if you want to study the build.

Demo reel
The story behind the Ghost Biker

What would Ghost Rider look like as a teenager?

Emilio Serrano has brought hellfire into Maya, on a BMX. The Ghost Biker is his tongue-in-cheek answer to the Ghost Rider comics: all attitude and fury, powered by pedals.

Javier González Barreiro's model plays the joke straight, with the flaming skull, the punk jacket and hair, and a lanky silhouette about as far from the original character as it gets. Those long limbs are what make his action poses read so strongly.

The bike and rider are built to work together, so mounted and dismounted sequences come naturally, and the BMX itself can carry part of the story. Comedy from the teenage twist, stunt sequences, or a paper round that has never looked this dangerous.
