Creatures Insects Pack

Creatures Insects by Maksim Bugrimov features 5 humanoid insect like character. As always with Maksim’s characters they are well made and easy to work with.The pack includes two sets of animations, one set for the more humanoid insects, and one for the crawlers.While the rigs are generic, I had no problem changing the rig to humanoid (for the humanoid characters) and using other humanoid animations. Bear in mind that I only made a quick test of this and there may be cases where it’s not as simple. For instance the insects only have 3 fingers.

Demo scene

In the demo scene character 04 appears white. For some reason the material for character 04 is missing the albedo texture. This is very easily fixed by editing the material and add the corresponding albedo texture.

As I mentioned there are two sets of animations, one for the more humanoid characters, and one for the crawlers. The animations all look good, and there’s a few different attack and death animations to choose from. These can all be seen on the asset store page so I’m not showing them here.

Materials are for the built-in render pipeline, but they convert nicely to HDRP and URP in Unity 2021.3.16f

Real project

The models are imported as a generic rig to Unity3D, but they are close to a humanoid rig and changing the import setting to humanoid worked fine. At least for the quick prototyping stage I’m in now. I wouldn’t be surprised if there are issues with some animations, but for prototyping it was a quick way to just drop the model in to Opsive’s third person without having to touch the animation.

Conclusion

The models are well made, and so are the animations. If you like the style there’s no reason to hesitate. Just head over to the asset store and get it.
