3D Modeler Needed to Convert Creature Models into Articulated Color FDM Fidget Toys
Worldwide
I’m looking for a 3D modeler to convert existing finished creature models into high-quality articulated color fidget toys for FDM-style 3D printing and commercial sale. The work involves cleaning up the source model, preserving its character/silhouette, creating articulated body segments, designing reliable ball-and-socket or similar joints, and delivering print-ready STL/3MF files. The final model must be practical, movable, slicer-ready, and color-ready. It should have durable geometry, clean articulation gaps, realistic tolerances, no fragile thin parts, no floating/unprintable elements, and no excessive support requirements. The model should also include clean color/material regions suitable for slicer software. The goal is a real physical color product, not just a textured render. For the first test, several modelers may receive the same source model. I will compare results based on printability, articulation quality, color-readiness, appearance, file organization, speed, and how well the original creature is preserved. Payment is tied to an accepted, print-ready deliverable. A model that only looks good on screen but cannot reasonably be printed, articulated, sliced, or prepared for color printing will not be approved as complete until fixed. This first contract is for one paid test model. If the result is strong, future projects may be priced by complexity and may include fixed payment plus performance-based profit share for approved commercial models.
