**3D Modeler needed — custom 3D-printable PC case (mech / quadruped robot design)** Hi, I'm looking for a 3D modeler (CAD, hard-surface / mechanical) to design a custom PC case that will be 3D printed at home. The case should look like a walking mech — a quadruped robot with an armored "head" module sitting on four articulated legs, white panels with sharp chamfered edges and blue LED accent strips. I'll provide reference concept art. I don't need a 1:1 copy of the reference, I need a design clearly inspired by it that actually works as a functional PC enclosure. **Scope of work** - Design the full enclosure: main body (housing the hardware), four legs acting as the structural stand, and the sculpted top/front armor panels - Split the model into printable parts sized for my printer's build volume, with proper joints (dovetails, dowel pins, or screw bosses) so the pieces assemble rigidly - Design in printing constraints: minimal support needs, sensible wall thickness, no fragile overhangs on load-bearing legs - Integrate mounting points: motherboard standoffs, PSU bracket, GPU support, fan/radiator mounts, SSD/HDD mounts, I/O and rear cutouts, front panel button and USB placement - Airflow: intake and exhaust openings with adequate cross-section, sensible cooling path, dust filter mounts if practical - Channels/recesses for LED strips and cable routing - Structural check: the legs must safely carry the loaded weight of the machine **My hardware / constraints** - Motherboard form factor: ATX - GPU: integrated to the motherboard as one processing unit (its a waterblock integrated to the motherboard reducing the space and optimizing the cooling) - PSU: ATX - Cooling: custom cooling system - Printer build volume 40x40x50cm, material PLA **Deliverables** - Editable parametric CAD source (Fusion 360, SolidWorks, or STEP with feature history if possible) - Neutral STEP export of the full assembly - Watertight, print-ready STL/3MF per part, correctly oriented - Short assembly guide: part list, print order, hardware list (screws, nuts, inserts), exploded views or renders **How I'd like to work** Milestone-based: (1) rough blockout validating proportions and internal volume, (2) detailed exterior modeling, (3) part splitting + print prep and final files. I'll give feedback at each stage. When you apply, please include: - Portfolio links showing hard-surface or mechanical/functional 3D printing work (not just game-art meshes) - Which software you'd use - Your estimate of hours or a fixed price, and a rough timeline - Whether you have experience designing parts that were actually printed and assembled Thanks — happy to answer any questions about the hardware or the look I'm after.

Hello, good day! A project like this isn't just about creating an eye-catching model—it's about engineering a design that actually prints, assembles, supports the hardware reliably, and still looks incredible once it's on your desk. I've carefully reviewed the attached reference images, and I really like the concept. My approach would be to design the enclosure from the inside out—first ensuring every hardware component fits perfectly, then building the mechanical shell around it while keeping the proportions, airflow, structural strength, and printability in balance. Using SolidWorks, I'll create a fully parametric model with clean assemblies, printable part segmentation, reliable mechanical joints, mounting points, cable management, LED channels, and components optimized for FDM printing. Every part will be designed with real-world assembly in mind, not just visual appearance. To make the development process smooth, I'll provide progress updates at every milestone, allowing us to refine the design together before moving to the next stage. To give you complete confidence before awarding the project, I'd be happy to create the initial blockout concept free of charge and deliver it within 24 hours. This will let you evaluate my design approach and modeling quality before making any commitment. I'm at my computer right now and ready to get started. Send me any additional hardware details or references, and I'll begin immediately. Best regards, Samuel F. Master's Degree in Architectural Engineering
