Looks like you are trying to steal someone else's work from a website like Sketchfab so you can quickly recreated the model because it was not allowed to be downloaded ...that's something that we don't appreciate in the Area forums.

I advise you to learn how to model or contact the actual person who modeled it and offer a few bucks for his/her work.

I am sorry. I just trying the fastest way to create this kind of creature. I wasn't planning on doing anything public with it and was going to credit the artist, so I thought it wouldn't be a problem. I was in the process of making my own images but found these and thought it would be faster.

Fair enough, then you can use those images as reference image planes in Maya for modeling and get to work in a traditional way,should be a fun model to recreate, or like I mentioned...email the artist and make an offer.

Good luck.
