Rigging the Synth Overlord

Gabe had the idea that we should rig the cables for the Synth Overlord so they aren't fixed in the same position for the duration of the animation. I rebuilt the piping for the overlord so that they were straight and able to be repositioned; rather than being posed static.

I wasn't sure how I should do this, but after a while I decided to use a ribbon spine; as we'd been shown how to do this by Keat previously. I ended up making a few mistakes while building the rig, however I was able to complete the second pipe in less than 5 minutes. I'll leave it at 2 pipes for the moment and check with our head of 3D (Gabe) that it'll do what we need it to before I make anymore.
