Dust from "Dust: An Elysian Tail"

Description
I recently got this model into a state that's pretty much usable for most things, so think of it as an alpha release. I'm still very much an amateur at this, so if you have modelling experience criticism would be much appreciated.

ISSUES:
- It does not yet have facial flexes or working eyeballs. I tried to get them working but I think there's a problem with my Maya plugin, so I'm planning on using Blender to add them at a later date.
- The joint orientations on the hat and left hand are messed up so they're a little harder to pose. I honestly have no idea why that's happening; they look fine in Maya.
- There are a LOT of jigglebones. They look nice but you'll probably have to tweak their motion manually to stop them clipping (for example, delete the movement of the hair fringes and the lower ear bones to stop them clipping through the hat).
HEY, TAKE NOTE ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE DOING STATIC POSES:
You can enable manual animation/posing of the jigglebones by right clicking the animation set -> Utilities -> Bake Procedural Bones. Remember that if you disable it again you'll lose any changes you've made to them.

Features:
- Bodygroups for the cape, hat and hair (so it doesn't clip with the hat)
- A total of 29 jigglebones for the cape, hat, hair, ears, waistcoat and tail
- Normal maps made in Mudbox
- Works with SFM's IK rig

And yes, I'll be releasing a separate version for GMod soon, hang tight. c;
By the way, if you want to make a playermodel out of this, go for it. Just ask and I'll send you the source files if you can't be bothered decompiling.

It's amazing but the eyes keep clipping with black for some reason :/

Glad to see another fan of the game. I ended up loving it after I first played it on the Xbox 360 from the XBL Arcade version.

I remember getting hooked on Dust: An Elysian Tale by a friend of mine, and I hardly see any good workshop materials with the characters, it's nice seeing them now and then.
