    Nice model. Is this going to be part of your fish pack or separate?

    Looks great. What does the "surface meet-dive animation" look like? Is it a jump from the water and smash down animation? Cause I could see this guy attacking ships.

    @Pkid sorry but this whale will not be part of underwater animals package. The problem is that i had so much struggle to upload sea life package, that it just isnt worth to go trough that pain for one model. Errors that i had before with uploading have not yet been fixed from Unity side, basically those appear only with big packages, maybe something will change with next update. I would gladly give you and other developers who have purchased special discount but Asset store does not allow that and neither am i selling models anywhere else.

    @Jaimi
    Actually it looks like footage from this video (0:10 - 0:30).

    I love this model. Thanks for the great work.

    One question though: I was trying to render the whale using a displacement shader, but the model only includes the normal map, not the displacement/bump map. Is there any chance you could include that?

    Thanks :)

    No worry, I'm playing with a few utilities to try to convert the normal map so hopefully it will work out.
    Thanks for the quick answer!

    Beautiful Model Janpec. I saw it by accident. I didn't expect to find a whale model anywhere. This will be ideal for a "Stop the Japanese whalers" game that I have been fiddling with for quite a while now [pipe dream game that I'll probably never finish].

    Hi Jan, is this free for Unity only or can we use the model in other projects too?

    Looks like a great quality model, thankyou very much for making it free!

    I've added propulsion to this whale using an empty. Does anyone know how to select which of the model animations runs, from another animation? I can use an event and script if needed, I'm just wondering if there is a better way. I have the whale swimming in a large circle and coming to the surface once per lap. I'd like to switch to the dive animation at that point.

    @janpec Mate... why are you amazing assets so cheap? This one free even. But the others for around 5 bucks. I feel like I'm exploiting you by getting them.

    Please excuse my ignorance, but why is there a whale with baked animation? Why would you or would you not use that whale rather than the model 23 whale❓ Thanks.

    What Model 23 whale are you talking about? This is a good whale model with animations. Great for many games.
