3D Artist to Convert an STL Character into a Fully Articulated 3D Printable Action Figure
Worldwide
I'm looking for an experienced 3D artist/CAD designer to modify my existing STL character model into a 3D-printable articulated action figure. The model is already finished as a static STL. I need it redesigned into multiple parts with functional joints suitable for resin 3D printing. Required articulation: Shoulder joints (both arms) Elbow joints Hip joints (legs should move forward/backward and outward) Knee joints I do not need: Head articulation Wrist articulation Ankle articulation Waist or torso articulation Requirements: The figure should remain as visually accurate to the original model as possible. Design durable joints that can withstand normal handling. Ensure sufficient clearance/tolerances for resin printing. Parts should assemble without excessive sanding or modification. Minimize visible joint gaps whenever possible. The clothing/armor may be adjusted if necessary to accommodate articulation, but the overall appearance should stay close to the original design. Deliverables: Separate STL files for every printable part Source file (Blender, Fusion 360, or other native format) Assembly instructions or an exploded view (preferred) Please include: Examples of previous articulated figures or toys you have designed. Your estimated timeline. Your fixed price or hourly rate. I will provide the original STL after hiring. Payment will only be released after you provide proof that the articulated figure works as intended. Before payment, you must: 3D print the complete figure. Assemble all parts. Record a clear video demonstrating the articulation. Show each required joint moving smoothly: Shoulders Elbows Hips Knees The video must clearly show that the figure can be assembled and that all specified joints function correctly without breaking. Submitting only files is not sufficient. The completed, physically printed and assembled prototype must be demonstrated on video before payment is released.
