Samuel, the friendly neighborhood dinosaur

Meet the glittering Samuel the dinosaur!

Small and cute to break the image of the bloody tyrannosaurus, this fellow was created as part of our animation course.

The idea was to make a bipedal dinosaur that would then be animated using tools like Mgear and Ngskintool, all after being modeled in Maya and textured in Substance Painter. The small decor is arranged with assets from Quixel.

This is the first time I’ve tackled character rigging and skining but I’m quite satisfied of what I got at the end.

I hope the result will please you and do not hesitate to give me advice or support of any kind, it always helps!
