Complete Parametric Human System

The cgHuman allows you to get anatomical accuracy into your characters without the need to spend hours of your time creating skeleton, muscles and skin.

cgHuman V1.0 has a matching high quality skeletal model, a comprehensive set of muscles and high quality skin. The musculature has been tested extensively in-house for doing character animation - and has performed very well.
The cgHuman brings you a proven set of muscles on a high quality skeleton all tested and ready to function well for character animation.

The skeleton is anatomically correct and as much as possible the muscles are also - although everything is tuned for character animation rather than overly detailed anatomical work. There is also a matching high quality skin that is even suitable for close up facial work!

As a part of Absolute Character Tools it is rigged and ready to go, in other formats it is a static model set, requiring rigging.

Anatomical models:
The cgHuman is designed primarily for character animation and while it is as anatomically accurate as possible, compromises have be made to favor ease of character animation. This only applies to the muscles - the skeleton is anatomically accurate!

If complete anatomical accuracy is needed then The Ultimate Human model is favoured. This is the most complete and accurate model of the human musculo-skeletal system ever made.

cgHuman V 1.0 includes:
Skeleton: Complete human skeleton with 212 objects - teeth included.
Muscles: 143 parametric muscles tuned for character animation - facial muscles included.
Skin: An optimized 50K skin with detailed facial region for face animation.
Textures: muscle texture maps - muscle UV mapping encodes muscle/tendon transitions.

Formats:
As a static model set in all major 3D formats. Rigged and ready to animate in ACT format.
