Fable – Spike Rig by Emilio Serrano

Fable Spike 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, Fable Spike Rig for Maya gives you everything needed to produce outstanding animation work.

Emilio Serrano has brought one of Fable’s most beloved creature companions into Maya with the care and precision his work is known for: the Spike mGear Maya Rig.

Spike is Fable’s baby balverine, a mischievous, wide-eyed, protagonist, packed with more character than most full-scale characters. Andrei Szasz’s model is a faithful and beautiful interpretation of the design: expressive, appealing, and endlessly poseable. Every bit the companion you’d want running alongside your hero through Albion, and every bit as fun to animate.

The rig ships with a full AnimPicker and custom background image, mGear guide, Python and MEL post-scripts for complete rig rebuilds, and a clean control scheme that makes navigating Spike’s body natural and intuitive. Built with mGear 4 and tested in Maya 2024.

An excellent rig for creature character acting, companion animation exercises, and Fable fan animation. Spike’s small, expressive form rewards animators communicating excitement, wariness, affection, and mischief through movement alone. Skills that translate directly to creature work in game and film production.

What’s included:

• Fable – Spike mGear Maya rig
• Full AnimPicker with custom background image
• mGear guide, Python and MEL post-scripts
• 3D model and textures by Andrei Szasz
• Rigging by Emilio Serrano

If you’re looking for a creature rig brimming with personality, one that challenges you to think about how a small, expressive character physically navigates its world. Spike is a brilliant addition to your animation library.
