Sharks rigged and animated for Cinema4d 3D Model Collection

cgtrader

This is a collection of three sharks: Carcharodon carcharias (great white), Sphyrna mokarran (hammerhead), and Carcharhinus leucas (bull shark). Models come equipped with an intuitive and streamlined rig, featuring a visual selector and parametric animation capabilities. They are rigged with a robust Character object that incorporates custom components. A separate 'SHADOW' hierarchy of deformation joints allows for baking all the animation from the control rig to joints transforms, enabling export to real-time applications or game engines. The visual selector (tagged on a Character object) streamlines interaction and keeps the viewport clean. Dynamics applied to fins and spine components enhance realism and make animating more enjoyable. The parametric swimming motion built into the spine component enables effortless animation – simply control and animate frequency, amplitude, and wave length as well as blending for each of the spine controls. It's also possible to specify any path for CMotion so the model swims along it. As a bonus, models come with a Character template file (kinetic_fishRig.c4d), allowing you to adjust proportions for various types of fish while retaining procedural animation and visual selector features. You can also add or remove components and rig many kinds of fish or swimming creatures with this tool. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need the model in other formats.
