Introduction

This is a realistic cheetah model with multiple 4K maps, fur, rigging, and animation of walking, running, and trotting. This model is made with Blender 2.81a and rendered by Cycles renderer at real-world scale.

It consists of 8 objects.

Polygons

• Body: vertices 16,552; polygons 16,476
• Paws: vertices 3,928;   polygons 3,784
• Lacrimal glands:  vertices 1,072; polygons 1,060
• Mouth: vertices 4,500; polygons 4,468

Rigging

• It’s scalable.
• Face is controlled with a UI panel combined with the shape keys, and it supports eyes blinking/closing, and the movements of nose, eyelids, corners of the mouth.
• Four limbs IK/FK switch, leg stretch limit, toes closing and opening can be switched by custom attributes of the gear controller.
• Neck and spine IK/FK switch, the rotation of the head, neck, and tail are limited to follow the body, switched by custom attributes of the square controller.

Animations

• Loopable running animation at 30 fps, frame range 0-11;
• Loopable trotting animation at 30 fps, frame range 0-24;
• Loopable walking animation at 30 fps, frame range 0-26;

Features

1. The model is in meter units at real-world scale.
2. Just put the model in the scene to render without cleaning.
3. No part-name confusion when importing several models into a scene.
4. No external add-ons needed.
5. No lights and cameras.
