About this mod
a .obj model of a spotted hyena. use for whatever. roughly 25k triangles.
- Permissions and credits
other tips i can give to any one who textures this, as i had to leave out quite alot to maintain a reasonable model size:
-spotted hyenas have very diverse genetics in that they come in all sorts of spot-opacity, many variations of tan/beige and orangey-red, and fur length varying from "skin-tight" to pretty dang fluffy. so theres alot of freedom there.
-the "mane" of spotted hyenas flow towards the head, not the shoulders, interestingly
-the tail fur is loose, and "feathery", not at all dog-like or cat-like.
-hyenas do not have a "lip seam" like many animals do
I offer both the scuptris file, and .obj file. i used several references and if you are interested, heres the links to them (1) (2) (3) (4). there were more but i cant find the others oh well.
if there are any issues with the model, please tell me. please be specific in your report so i can try to fix it. i am currently attempting to refine the face, and may upload when contented. you can use this one as is though
future plans: none really but if anyone wants to provide a texture, or general skeleton, or whatever to add to this file, go ahead n ill credit you, or link to your file(s) if you dont want them here.
