Limber

Limber — beautiful IK limbs for After Effects

Limber by Battle Axe creates fully rigged, inverse-kinematic arms and legs made entirely from shape layers. Because the limbs are pure vector shapes, they stay razor-sharp at any scale and bend cleanly at the elbow or knee — giving your characters a professional, hand-crafted feel.

One shape layer, a complete limb

Generate a limb from a single click and Limber sets up the joints, IK controllers and styling for you. Drag the controllers to pose the arm or leg and the joint bends the way you expect, every time.

Style it to match your character

Fine-tune width, tapering, joint shape and end caps to fit your art direction — from chunky mascot limbs to slender, elegant lines. Attach hands and feet, then combine multiple limbs into a full-body rig.

Why it belongs in your toolkit

• Resolution-independent limbs that never pixelate.
• Reliable, natural IK bending with minimal setup.
• Clean, well-labelled controllers that keep complex rigs readable.

Installation

Drop the Limber file into your After Effects ScriptUI Panels folder, restart, and open it from the Window menu.
