I can only test the FBX format and not the original, just take this in mind when reading this review. The original file could be a lot better.
There are not a lot of Ellie models out there to choose from, and this model fit in my budget, but it is not very good for animation.
The good:
- you can choose what you want Ellie to wear
- low price
- Textures are good quality
- Mesh definition is decent
The bad:
- Rigged is very hard to animate (explanation further down)
- Rig not set up in T pose
- Arms can not go up further than in the images. Otherwise, your mesh in the arm pit will tear
For the purpose of animation, it is quite hard to animate. This is because there are 10 rigs for just 1 model. With this, you can decide what you want her to wear, but you will have to select like 6 different things to move 1 aspect of her body, otherwise things like bracelets and bandages will not move with it.
Conclusion:
Once again, I can only judge the FBX version of this and not the original file. The original file might be a lot better.
The rig is the worst of this model. To re-rig it, you would want to have the model in a T pose, but this leaves messy results, because the model can not go in the T-pose, without tearing.
I guess for the price it is decent, just don't count on animating the model
