Technical Information
Software: Maya 2022 (or higher)
Rigged using Advanced Skeleton.
Maya scene files include:
leopard.ma: rigged leopard (there are 2 version for 2 different leg setup, use the one that fit your need)
leopard_lighting.ma: reference this file into your animation scene and render, the lighting was setup already (mental ray). Use Render_cam for the best results.
Faces: 78282
Vertices: 79829
Texture folder: all the texture files (color, normal, displacement, specular).
Remember to set project, so all the textures can be loaded automatically.
Remember to turn "visibility" on for the "lens" layer before rendering. It will make nicer eyes render.
I also included the Zbrush project file (Zbrush 4r7 p3) in case you need to change the texture: leopard_zbr_prj
Leopard with (xgen) fur: https://vimeo.com/186313893
The xgen version was done by Massinissa MATOUB, here is the instruction video on how to use it.
