Riko (Made in Abyss) 3D model / VRChat Avatar

Riko, the silly little cave raider known for her delicious yet questionable food, is now available for VRChat!

I'm pleased to present you with Version 4.0, a near-complete remake emphasising quality and rigging for animation. Nearly everything was remade from scratch so please look at the Changelog below for more info!

This model has many fun features thanks to Avatar Dynamics! Light your way with Riko's headlamp or have your friends give you a nice head pat~ But don't let them pull on your hair because Riko might not like it~ Her clothes rustle and bob as she moves, and every layer she wears can be toggled to fit the situation.
