Hello, back again with a render I've been wanting to remake since I originally made it back in may, Ruby Basarios!

This monster suffered from a re-occurring issue with the 3ds max exporter, where the armature wouldn't export correctly. Ultimately this means that the model and the armature weren't linked when exported, so it was impossible to pose at the time, so I needed to pose it in 3ds max first then export as an OBJ into blender. There is a work around now with exporting the model as a gltf through the babylon exporter 3dsMAX plugin, but sadly while it exports the armature correctly the mesh gets triangulated and each individual face becomes independent from each other. Fixing up the lighting by manually stitching each face together takes a long time, so ultimately as a time saver just biting the bullet and exporting as an OBJ was the way to go.
