The Hive Quad Leg is here! This new rig part allows you to create a broader range of creatures, including horses, cats, dogs, insects, dinosaurs, mech/robots, bipedal werewolves, and more.
We’ve included a Quad Spine template to match the quad leg for horizontal spines. This template can be added to your rigs when building creatures such as dogs, horses, and cats. Full creature templates will be added soon.
