Summary:
What's included:
1 x Grapple Girl base mesh (1358 vertices, 2738 Edges, 1390 faces, 2696 Tris, UV unwrapped)
1 x Diffuse map (1024 x 1024)
1 x Normal map (1024 x 1024)
1 x Bump map (1024 x 1024)
1 x Specular map (1024 x 1024)
1 x Emission map (1024 x 1024)
1 x Animation armature (lame attempt @ walk cycle in the NLA editor)
Notes:
Objects were posed for display render, don’t forget to clear location & rotation.
"Subsurf" and "Edge Split" modifiers can be tweaked or removed as needed.
Feel free to resize maps if smaller is needed.
Base mesh is manifold consisting of 5 separate pieces. The character and the 4 claws to the grapple.
Texture samples sourced from:
http://www.plaintextures.com/
http://www.goodtextures.com/
Textures were otherwise hand painted using GIMP 2.8.
Animation Switches:
Switch-World.Head.Target:
Toggles the head to look at the "World" target instead of the "Local" target. The "World" target will not be influenced by any bone movement, where the "Local" target will follow the Root.
Switch.Head.Target:
Toggles the head to track a target vs. becoming forward kinetic (FK).
Switch-Kinematic.Arm.L & Switch-Kinematic.Arm.R &
Switch-Kinematic.Leg.L & Switch-Kinematic.Leg.R:
Toggles between Forward Kinematic (FK) and Inverse Kinematic (IK) for the corresponding Leg/Arm/Side.
Switch-World.Arm.Target.L & Switch-World.Arm.Target.R:
Same as Switch-World.Head.Target for the arms.
Final Thoughts:
I did import this into Unity and inspected mappings, I thought they worked well.
I apologise for mistakes, I will try to do better next model. Feel free to leave criticisms. They won't necessarily get this model adjusted but will be kept in mind for future projects.

Very well, um, "endowed".
... and to think they were reduced! There are bones for each that scale down and can move in (and it does look better imo).
Great model, but sadly neiter http://www.plaintextures.com/ nor http://www.goodtextures.com/ allow you to license the resulting textures as CC0 strictly legally speaking. I know it sounds stupid as the general requirements they state are fulfilled, but to relicense a copyrighted work you have to either be in full posession or have based your work only on fully compatible licenses.

I like this model ! If like me you're a beginner in Blender, you will be surprised that it doesn't animate at first when you press alt+A. I found out there were two steps for that :
- in the dopesheet editor, go to Action Editor and select (for instance) the Walk action.
- in the NLA editor, the Walk line is now green, click on the "pin" button on the Walk line, toward the left. Not sure what it does exactly, but if you press Alt+A you'll now see the walking animation :)
My engine doesn't even support IK yet, but I will try to use this model in my next game, thanks Quandtum :)
This is adorable! Love it!
