DESCRIPTION
Animated Cheetah 3D Model with Fur

Bring authentic speed and elegance to your shots with a production-ready cheetah built for close-ups and long takes. This asset combines a clean, animation-friendly rig with a groomed fur system, high-resolution textures, and Arnold-ready shading—ideal for film, VFX, realtime previews, VR, and simulations.

Rigging & Animation
  • CAT-based rig with IK/FK controls for fast posing and retargeting
  • Layered animation system for non-destructive tweaks (walk/run, head aim, eyelids, jaw)
  • Included loops/poses: T-pose, walk, run, standing, sitting, head up/down, mouth open/close, eyes open/close, signature moves
  • Stable deformation in shoulders, hips, and spine for athletic turns and sprints
Hair & Fur
  • Short-coat groom tuned for cheetah anatomy and tear-line markings
  • Density/length/root-thickness masks for art-directable clumping and silhouette control
  • Consistent, efficient results with Arnold for crisp close-ups
Quick Specs
  • Real-world scale (meters); organized layers and groups
  • Optimized topology for smooth deformation and fast previews
  • Pivot aligned for natural ground-plane placement
  • Fully textured and shaded
  • No third-party plugins required
Model Features
  • Non-overlapping UVs with consistent texel density
  • Adjustable mesh resolution—add or reduce subdivisions as needed
  • Clean material/object naming for predictable lookdev
  • Customizable palette and fur masks for alternative looks
What’s Included
  • 3ds Max scene with CAT rig and Arnold materials
  • Textures folder (8K/4K/2K maps as listed)
  • Example loops/poses and preview renders
  • Readme with setup notes

No unsupported objects
Unsupported objects:
- Lights

Geometry
No N-gons
N-gons are polygons with five or more sides which might cause issues in certain processes like rendering or animation. Learn more
No faceted geometry
Faceted geometry uses flat surfaces without smoothing, which can look unrealistic on curves.
Learn more
Manifold geometry
Manifold geometry ensures all surfaces are properly connected, avoiding issues like edges shared by more than two faces.

Textures & material
PBR textures
PBR textures simulate how light interacts with materials, making the model look realistic under different lighting.
Required PBR textures:
- Base Color
- Roughness
- Metalness
- Normal
Learn more
No embed textures
Embedded textures are stored inside the model file, increasing its size and sometimes causing compatibility issues.
Learn more
Square textures
Texture aspect ratio is the width-to-height ratio of a texture. Expected texture aspect ratio: 1:1
Learn more
Power of 2 texture sizes
Textures with dimensions in power of two (e.g. 512x512px, 1024x1024px) are used to optimize performance and memory usage.
Learn more
Assigned materials
Materials are applied to the 3D model to allow visualize a model's surface properties and appearance.
Learn more
UVs & naming
No UV overlaps
UVs overlap when multiple points on the 3D model's surface are mapped to the same point on the UV island causing texture stretching.
Learn more
UV unwrapped model
A UV unwrapped model means its 3D surface is flattened into 2D space, allowing textures to be applied accurately.
