Leopard 3D Model — Rigged Animated
Production-ready big cat asset for VFX, CGI, games, and VR/AR. Built in 3ds Max 2023 (Arnold), fully rigged with CAT, and shipped with loop-ready Walk (45f) and Run (18f) animations. Includes high-resolution 4K textures and clean, subdivision-friendly topology.
What’s New — v1.3 (Updated: Oct 3, 2025)
- Native scenes: 3ds Max 2023 (Arnold 5.4.4.2).
- Added & organized locomotion: CATMotion hosts Walk 35f & Run 25f; Baked Walk 45f provided as a separate layer for collapsed use. Improved loop/blend compatibility across actions.
- Kept prior fixes: clean .fbx exports (baked animation; corrected skin settings) and improved Pounce animation.
Overview
