Leopard 3D Model — Rigged Animated

Production-ready big cat asset for VFX, CGI, games, and VR/AR. Built in 3ds Max 2023 (Arnold), fully rigged with CAT, and shipped with loop-ready Walk (45f) and Run (18f) animations. Includes high-resolution 4K textures and clean, subdivision-friendly topology.

What’s New — v1.3 (Updated: Oct 3, 2025)

• Native scenes: 3ds Max 2023 (Arnold 5.4.4.2).
• Added & organized locomotion: CATMotion hosts Walk 35f & Run 25f; Baked Walk 45f provided as a separate layer for collapsed use. Improved loop/blend compatibility across actions.
• Kept prior fixes: clean .fbx exports (baked animation; corrected skin settings) and improved Pounce animation.

Overview

Realistic Leopard (Panthera pardus) with organized layers and named controls. Geometry optimized for polygon efficiency; supports TurboSmooth when higher fidelity is required.
