3D Model Customization – Garden Product (Functional Improvements + Visual Design)

Posted 3 weeks ago

Worldwide

Summary

I'm developing a garden product and looking for an experienced 3D designer to help me customize an existing model. It's a focused, well-defined project, and I'm not starting from scratch. **What I need:** - Start from an existing 3D model file - Preserve the core functionality while exploring improvements to how the product works - Redesign or enhance the visual/aesthetic design — surface texture, decorative elements - Deliver print-ready files optimized for home FDM printing (STL or similar) **You're a great fit if you:** - Have experience designing consumer or garden products - Understand FDM printing constraints (wall thickness, overhangs, supports, layer adhesion) - Can think about both form and function — not just make something look good, but work better - Are comfortable building on an existing file rather than starting from scratch - Have a portfolio with decorative, nature-themed, or consumer product work **Project scope:** Small and focused — a few hours depending on complexity. If the collaboration goes well, I have additional products in development and would love to build an ongoing working relationship. **To apply, please share:** - Examples of relevant 3D design work (consumer products, decorative design, or nature/garden themes) - Your experience preparing FDM print-ready files - A brief note on how you approach modifying and improving an existing model
