Half Life – CP Officer Rig by Emilio Serrano

Half-Life CP Officer 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, Half-Life CP Officer Rig for Maya gives you everything needed to produce outstanding animation work.

Emilio Serrano has stepped into City 17 and brought one of Half-Life 2’s most recognizable authority figures into Maya. The Civil Protection Officer mGear Rig comes complete with stun baton and improved arm controls.

The CP Officer is one of Half-Life 2’s most effective environmental storytelling characters. They’re anonymous behind the visor, threatening through posture alone, and are the human face of the Combine’s occupation. The model (originally by mb814 at GAMEBANANA, extensively tweaked for animation use) captures the character’s distinctive tactical gear and dehumanizing aesthetic.

The rig includes a dedicated space switch on the FK arms, allowing the upper arms to orient to local space, a practical feature for weapon-holding and patrol animations that keeps arm positions stable when the character turns. The stun baton (model by Yogensia) is fully rigged and included out of the box, giving you the character’s signature prop without any additional setup.

Ideal for tactical character animation, patrol behaviour studies, and Half-Life fan projects. The CP Officer’s rigid, authoritarian look rewards animators who understand how to communicate character through posture and deliberate movement, the animation equivalent of a character who never lets you see what they’re thinking.

What’s included:

• Half-Life 2 CP Officer mGear Maya rig
• Stun baton prop rig (model by Yogensia)
• FK arm space switch for local orientation
• mGear guide
• Model by mb814 (GAMEBANANA)
• Rigging done by Emilio Serrano
