A spider you can actually direct.

Rigged, animated and ready to drop into your scene: a realistic arachnid with 27 bones, five hand-tuned animation clips and a control panel inside Blender.

What you get

• 5 animations: Idle (feet pinned to the floor), Walk (in place), WalkFwd (root motion, about 0.227 units per cycle), Run, Threat
• 27-bone rig: root, body, abdomen, and 8 legs x 3 bones (hip / femur / tibia)
• Soft skinning with joint blending, so nothing breaks when the legs fold
• Feet stay planted during contact: no floating, no sliding
• PBR textures: Base Color 4096 + a generated Normal map, both packed in the file
• Adjustable bump: the normal map intensity is a slider (0 = off)
• Spider panel (press N): play, switch clip, change duration, bump and bone display

Formats

• .blend - demo scene; animations and the panel are already inside
• .fbx - for Unreal, Unity, Cinema 4D, Maya
• .glb - for the web, Godot, and anywhere glTF is welcome

The panel

Press N in the 3D viewport and the Spider tab is there. No setup needed:

• Play / pause
• Idle, Walk, WalkFwd, Run, Threat
• Seconds - regenerate the straight walk with a new duration
• Speed (FPS), Bones display style, In front
• Bump - normal map intensity, 0 to 3

The panel lives inside the .blend as a registered text block, so it appears on its own. Just turn on Auto Run Python Scripts in Preferences (Save & Load); otherwise run it manually from the Text editor (Spider_Animation.py, then Run Script). The add-on is also included separately if you prefer installing it.
