A walk cycle of a little cat. This was my first time animating a quadruped and rendering using Maya. I had 3 weeks for the project; the first 1,5 weeks was spend researching cat anatomy and walking patterns and the last 1,5 for the animation and rendering. I had a few small problems with the rig of the cat (such as only being able to bend the tips of the toes and not the entire foot), but I was able to overcome them and I am proud of the final result.
The model isn't mine, you can find it here: https://agora.community/content/little-kitty
