Autodesk Project Pinocchio - Free 3D Charactger Creation
Project Pinocchio allows you to customize a humanoid model and
then render it with animation and rigging. Characters can be rendered in
multiple formats and can be downloaded and used in Autodesk Maya, Autodesk 3ds Max, and other modeling and animation tools. Here's an example I made from the site and imported to 3ds Max.
Autodesk Project Pinocchio a powerful 3D design and animation tools
to provide you with a web-based laboratory where you can create
fully-rigged custom 3D characters. Design a creation of your own or
modify existing stock characters using a variety of pre-defined body
types, facial features, and clothing styles for inclusion in 3D games,
animations, and scenes.

Once you've made your character, you can bring it into 3ds Max via FBX, or follow the video below to design and import the character into Maya.
