3D Modeler Needed to Create 5 Tokens (Characters + Steel/RFID Integration)
Worldwide
Hi! I’m building a new children’s toy that uses physical small 3D tokens with embedded RFID/NFC elements and a steel insert for magnetic alignment. I am looking for an experienced 3D modeler and product designer to help create five new characters that are manufacturing-ready with a world class toy company. What You Will Deliver You will produce five fully modeled tokens that include: 1. Exterior Design (Character/Object/Scene) 3D sculpted front icon (simple, kid-friendly, bold shapes) Clean geometric back side Cartoonish, toy-like silhouette Suitable for small-format injection molding 2. Internal Engineering Cavity for an internal steel disc/plate (for weight + magnetic alignment) Housing pocket for a circular RFID/NFC coil + PCB tag Proper wall thickness for injection molding Draft angles and manufacturability considerations Two-part mold–friendly construction 3. Final Deliverables STEP + STL + source files Final renders of each token Exploded-view showing steel and RFID placement Color suggestions for molding & painting The designs should follow a playful, iconic, toy-friendly aesthetic: Dino Buddy A chubby brontosaurus or stegosaurus with smooth, simple surfaces and an expressive face. Rocket Zoomer A small rocket with fins and a stylized flame burst, chunky proportions. Forest Scene A tile-like scene with two pine trees, a sun/moon, and a little path — extremely iconic and readable. Magic Potion Bottle A round potion bottle with a cork and swirling “magic” inside, exaggerated silhouette. Robot Pal A cheerful retro-styled robot with boxy limbs and round eyes, very simple geometry. Ideal Candidate: Experience in toy design, consumer product modeling, or collectibles Strong 3D modeling skills: Fusion 360, SolidWorks, Blender, ZBrush, etc. Understanding of parting lines, draft angles, and injection molding Ability to design internal structures to house small electronics Portfolio with examples of stylized 3D characters or simple toys Turnaround: 1–2 weeks for all 5 tokens Continued work available (we will create dozens of these over time)
