I’m launching a line of 100 % original Shonen-style anime figures and need a creative partner who can turn my character concepts into production-ready models. Materials My choice is “random,” so I’m open to PVC, Resin, ABS, or a smart combination—whatever achieves the right balance of durability, detail, and cost for each figure. Characters I already have specific heroes and villains sketched out. Once we sign an NDA, I’ll share their turnarounds, power sets, and personality notes so you can capture the exact vibe. Scope of work • Refine my rough sketches into polished concept art (front, side, back views). • Build high-detail 3D sculpts that meet standard injection-mold specifications. • Prepare split parts, keying, and wall thickness so the factory can cast or print without re-work. • Provide color call-outs and simple pose sheets for packaging mock-ups. What will win you the job • A portfolio showing stylized or Shonen characters—bonus points for previous figure work. • Fluency in ZBrush, Blender, or similar sculpting tools plus experience exporting to STL/OBJ for manufacturing. • Clear communication on timelines, revisions, and manufacturing constraints. I’m ready to move quickly: first figure concept approved within two weeks, full sculpt a week later, then iterate as needed. Let’s create the next must-have collectible together.

Hey, this project is a very good fit for my experience. I specialize in character sculpting and production-ready 3D models, with the majority of my recent work focused on collectible and 3D-printable characters. Over the past year I've created 50+ characters, taking them from sculpting through to production ready models for printing in resin. I work primarily in zbrush and blender and have experience with both character sculpting and hard-surface modeling, as well as preparing models for resin printing and manufacturing. I'm comfortable handling the practical side of figures as well, including part separation, keys, tolerances, wall thickness, and making sure the final model can actually be produced without unnecessary rework. While my portfolio mainly focuses on mythological/historical character the Shonen/anime direction is also something I'm very interested in working on as I'm a big fan of the medium. You can see a few examples of my character work directly on my profile. If you are interested I'd be happy to review the first character and discuss the level of detail, intended scale, and manufacturing method before getting started so feel free to contact me.

Turning original Shonen character concepts into manufacture-ready collectible figures — that's a project where sculpting quality and production feasibility have to work together from day one. You need more than nice concept art: split parts, proper keying, correct wall thickness for injection molding, and sculpts that a factory can actually cast without rework — all while nailing the stylized anime proportions your characters are built on. I work in 3ds Max and Keyshot for high-detail character sculpting and rendering, with RizomUV for clean UV work on complex geometry — a workflow suited to production-ready figure output, not just portfolio pieces. A couple of quick questions before the NDA stage: Are you looking for full injection-mold production specs from the start, or should the first figure concept focus on sculpt/pose approval before we lock manufacturing constraints? Roughly how many characters are in the initial line, and is the $905-1500 budget for the first figure only or the full initial batch? Worth noting my core sculpting tools are 3ds Max/Keyshot rather than ZBrush/Blender — happy to share samples so you can judge if the output quality fits, and can discuss STL/OBJ export either way.
