Also if you prefer Maya we already have a list of rigs for that. Well here’s a list of some great rigs to use in Autodesk 3DS Max. Or maybe you already are a skilled animator and want to prove it in your portfolio without having your own models. You need to find or make a model and then skin it onto a skeletal mesh.Ĭonsidering animation is one of the most difficult skills to master and it requires the most practice, sometimes you’ll want to skip all the tedious set up.

Whatever your reasons, this article contains a long list of excellent models and rigs that we at Concept Art Empire have found online, all ready to go for 3D project work. Or perhaps you want to practice animation and don’t want the bother of making your own rig. Maybe you just need some miscellaneous items or environment objects to fill out a scene.
