Personal exercise about fully rigging a cat skeleton and let it do a simple walk animation with muscles and skin simulation.
This video shows the work in progress and the final result.
Bones and muscles rigging: Maya
Muscles and skin simulation: Ziva plugin for Maya
Special thanks to https://www.artstation.com/danieladep... for sculpting the cat, grooming it and producing the final rendering.
Some parts of animation and simulation are improvable, I'm using the knowledge acquired in this work for further projects.
