Hey there! I'm looking for animated bug characters (like bugs that resemble the bugs from the movie A Bug's Life or Antz, or Ant Bully). I'd super appreciate if anyone can point me in the right direction! :)

    Thanks Catherine! I've seen that one, but it's a little too life-like in design. I'm looking for a more anthromorphic ant. I've attached an image to this post with the vibe I'm looking for :)

    I really don't know if this would work but you might be able to create it wth something like this https://www.daz3d.com/antwan-for-genesis-81-male combined with one of the toon sets byt 3DUniverse https://www.daz3d.com/3d-universe or Joe Quick https://www.daz3d.com/joequick ;

    Otherwise, I haven't really seen anything like that

    The odds are very slim that you will find an ant or bug character already made exactly as you are looking for.  It is a niche type item.

    Your best bet is to look at Creature Creator morphs and then dial spin them as best you can to your desired look.

    Using an "emaciated" body type should approximate the image you posted.

     

    You'll have to do a search through the CREATURE options to find what best approximates your vision.

    example: Shape wise this morph has an Ant look though it is more sinister than the bugs life cartoony character.

    The3DZone used to have both an ant (Andre) and a Bee here, but they're no longer available. You can do a Google search for "3D Cartoon Ant Model" or something similar and you might find an .fbx version that might work.

    Thank you everyone! Those are some awesome ideas for workarounds!

    And wsterdan - great call! Andre is actually perfect for what I'm looking for so it's a shame he's no longer available. I'll def take your suggestion up!
