-CG Creature Design For Animated Production

This is a solo project done as a part of my master degree. Its focuse is on designing a stylized CG quadruped creature for a possible animated production. Started with a concept design inspired mainly by my cat, right after by Croods' creatures from DreamWorks Animation with some traits of JB Vendamme and Aaron Blaise's art. Model was sculpted in Zbrush and retopologized in Maya. Fully rigged with IK/FK switches, stretchy and bendy legs, stretchy spine, tail and neck with a flexible face rig. Final result is presented in a short walk cycle animation and a turntable.

Before posting animation I still need to fix it. Planning to add fur and a 'Night time' version in near future.
