Animated Cheetah 3D Model - Hair and Fur | Advanced

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

• 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
