About this model

Stretched out flat as if basking on a riverbank, this crocodile rests with its belly close to the ground and its legs splayed to the sides. The long, tapering snout ends in a slightly raised nose, and a row of teeth peeks out along the closed jaw. The back is covered in rows of raised, bony scutes in olive and sandy tan, broken up by irregular dark bands that continue down the long, ridged tail to a pointed tip. The belly scales are lighter and smoother, and each webbed foot carries dark claws. At real-world length it drops straight into swamp, river or zoo scenes. The detailed scale texture makes it ideal for renders, nature cinematics and close-ups, and a base for your own LODs. Tip: sink the body partly below a water plane so only the eyes, snout and back ridge show.

Good for

  • Swamp or river ambush scene
  • Wildlife documentary render
  • Zoo or safari simulation
  • Source mesh for custom LODs

Engine import notes

Unity GLB · FBX

Import the GLB with the glTFast package or use the FBX. 1 m in the file = 1 Unity unit.

Unreal Engine FBX

Use the FBX. The model is built in metres. Unreal works in centimetres and converts on import, so it arrives at real size (0.54 m = 54 cm).

Godot 4 GLB · FBX

Drag the GLB into the FileSystem dock. Godot 4 imports it directly, with materials. The FBX works too (Godot 4.3+ imports it natively).

Blender BLEND · GLB

Open the .blend directly, or import the GLB via File › Import › glTF 2.0.

Use it in: UnityUnrealGodotBlender
