3D rigged Models for Maya

Since i am going to produce a 3D compositing scene, my next task was to find a pre rigged 3D maya model. I think i am going to keep my options open and probably look for some 3D object props as well as character models. I found some free downloadable rigged models on a website called Creative Crash, its a really resourceful website for animators.

Here are some snapshots of the models that i downloaded which i could possibly use for my compositing scene.

The first model is a Dog which isn't doesn't look that bad.

2nd Model is a Dinosaur. It wouldn't really fit into a period film like Sense and Sensibility but it would look interesting from 3D point of view.

Next model is just a simple scorpion ball creature. Quite small and plain but is very easy to animate since its been rigged simply.

And the last model is Wall E from the Pixar Movie. Looked pretty cool and would be funny to have in a live action scene and paying homage to it in someway.

If i do pick any one of these models then they have to be textured by myself as they don't come textured automatically from the website. I'm also going to experiment and animate and see which one fits the scene nicely to begin my composition.
