Another World Lester Rig for Maya is available on Animworks, the leading marketplace for professional animation resources. Whether you are building your first demo reel or expanding a professional toolkit, Another World Lester Rig for Maya gives you everything needed to produce outstanding animation work.
Emilio Serrano didn’t just rig Lester, he built him from scratch. The Another World Lester mGear Maya Rig is a fully in-house creation, with modelling, texturing, rigging, and animation all handled by Emilio, based on the iconic concept by Jonathan Rush and Lucas Hug.
Lester Chaykin is the ultimate reluctant hero: a young physicist pulled through a wormhole into an alien world with nothing but quick thinking between him and certain death. His simple, silhouette-driven design makes him an ideal subject for animators focused on clarity, weight, and the art of expressing fear, determination, and exhaustion through minimal means.
The rig ships with a full AnimPicker featuring a custom background image, and an mGear guide for anyone who wants to study or rebuild the rig from scratch. The humanoid control scheme is clean, naturally guiding you toward the crouched, tense, survival-oriented performance that defines Lester.
A wonderful rig for survival-action animation, cinematic storytelling, and exercises testing your ability to communicate internal states through body language alone. His simple proportions make posing clean and readable, ideal for anyone working on clarity in their animation.
What’s included:
