Tiktaalik Rigged is a 3d model of an extinct genus of lobe-finned fish (sarcopterygian) that lived approximately 375 million years ago during the Late Devonian period.
It is notable for its transitional features between fish and early tetrapods (four-limbed vertebrates). Tiktaalik had a flat skull, a flexible neck, and robust fins with bone structures resembling limbs, which suggest adaptations for moving in shallow water and potentially on land. This makes Tiktaalik a key fossil in understanding the evolutionary transition from aquatic to terrestrial life.

Tiktaalik 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!
