Asset: Crowds

Hey guys! So here are a few low-poly crowd models that you can use to decorate your scenes. Be aware that there are a few images I don't really have rights to so I wouldn't recommend using these in any feature film stuff.

I have a few quality models, rigged ones, lower quality standing ones and super low-poly ones that should be for large crowds

I'm also working on a walking crowd system that'll be up later so you just can drop em' in and have em' walk around.
