Giant Weta Rigged is a three-dimensional model of large brown wingless insect related to the grasshoppers, with long spiny legs and wood-boring larvae, which is found only in New Zealand.
Weta, fascinating insects endemic to New Zealand, are notable for their stout bodies and formidable appearance. Belonging to the Orthoptera order, they share ancestry with crickets and grasshoppers. Their striking features include prominent spines and powerful hind legs adapted for jumping. Weta are primarily nocturnal creatures, inhabiting diverse environments ranging from forests to caves. Despite their intimidating looks, they are generally harmless to humans, feeding mainly on plants. However, some species exhibit omnivorous tendencies, preying on smaller insects. Threats such as habitat destruction and introduced predators have led to the decline of certain weta species, underscoring the need for conservation measures to safeguard their existence.

Giant Weta Rigged for Maya is fully rigged and is ready to be animated in Maya. You can easily position it the way you need or animate it the way your project requires. See the screenshots to get an idea of how rigging works. The pose of the model on the render images is an example and can be recreated using rig, it is not initially included into the product.
Hope you like it!
