it looks like you need to re-calculate or reverse the normals,
try putting it into something other than Unity like blender for example and see if it still looks like that,
at least then you will know if is the normals or an import problem.

Make sure you apply any modifiers or whatever 3ds uses before export (i use blender)

And by the way you cant do the animation out of unity you need to do it in 3ds and then export the animations with the .fbx
(well, you could but you wont get anywhere near as good animations)

Try to converting the entire model to editable poly. That way it “bakes” all of the modifiers that you probably still have attached to the model. Importing models that still have modifiers attached into Unity always gives weird problems.
