3D Animal | Manta Ray Animated  

Introduction

• This is a high-quality manta ray model, including multiple 4K maps in the UDIM format, rigging, and animation. This model is made with Blender and Cycles renderer at real-world scale.
• It consists of 4 objects: Body, eyes, gill01, and gill02.

Polygons

• Body: vertices 50,050 polygons 50,064
• Eyes: vertices 6,826 polygons 6,794    
• Gill01: vertices 13,684 polygons 13,684    
• Gill02: vertices 14,500 polygons 14,480    
• Total: vertices 85,060 polygons 85,022

Formats

• There is a Blender project and an OBJ file.

Rigging

• Created with the Blender armature system, and controllers are equipped with features are as follows:
• CTR_root.M controls the whole model.
• CTR_gravity.M controls the animation of the body.
• CTR_spine_a-e.M controls the rotation of the spine.
• CTR_mouth.M controls the opening and closing of the mouth.
• CTR_chest_a.-c.M controls the breath movement.
• CTR_IK_tail_a-d.M controls the rotation of the tail.
• ROOT_pectoral fin_a.L/R and ROOT_pectoral fin_b.L/R control the rotation of pectoral fins.
• The character is with UI control.
• Note: The two animations in the project are rigged separately.

Animations

• Loopable swimming animation at 30FPS, frame range 0-60;
• Unlooped swimming animation at 30 FPS, frame range 0-370.

Features

• The model is in meter units at real-world scale. 
• Put the model in the scene to render without any cleaning.
• No lights and cameras.
• The Multiresolution modifiers are kept on the body and Gill01. To save hardware resources, the Display and Render are toggled off by default. 
• The texture maps are baked based on the meshes with Multiresolution modifiers. Please turn on the Multiresolution modifiers when high subdivisions are needed.
