For Blender 3.4 Eevee and Cycles Render

The Cute baby dragon from "Sintel"

This version includes:

  1. Improved shading using Principled BSDF
  2. Improved geometry and modifier settings to correct UV island
  3. Added two parameters for viewport detail level (maximum of 4) and a switch (set it to 1) to load the low detail (animation) preview model. To see these parameters select the "Root" bone and go to "Item > Properties" .
  4. Added bone group colors and hid unnecessary bones.

Notes on how to use the character

  1. Put your 3D cursor in the Origin of your scene. Choose File > Link and browse the character file
  2. Go to the Collections and select CH-Scales.Baby. Make sure "Instance Collections" is enabled. Press Enter.
  3. The Collection should appear instanced in the Viewport. Select it.
  4. Choose Object > Library Override > Make.
  5. If the model is too heavy you can use the aforementioned "dragon_low" to switch between the low detail model.
  6. Pose the model to your liking and enjoy!
