I need a life-size 3D model of the feral water buffalo native to Australia’s Northern Territory for an upcoming commercial campaign. The model must look photo-real, with accurate anatomy, muscular definition, horns, hide texture and the characteristic weathered colouring these animals display in the Top End. I will supply multiple reference photographs from different angles, including close-ups of the head, hooves and distinctive hump, to guide sculpting and texture work. Because the piece will be used in promotional material, I will require full usage rights on the final files. Key requirements • High-poly sculpt with clean topology suitable for close-up renders • 4K (or higher) PBR texture set—albedo, roughness, normal, AO, specular/metallic as needed • Life-accurate scale (around 1.8 m shoulder height) • No rig or animation needed Deliverables 1. Final textured model in a standard format (.fbx or .obj) plus native file from your preferred software (Blender, Maya, ZBrush, etc.). 2. A turntable render or screenshot set that confirms proportions and texture quality. 3. Simple read-me noting scale, texture maps and software version. Acceptance criteria • Proportions match supplied reference photos within an error of ±2 cm at life-size. • Textures are seamless, free from stretching and ready for real-time or offline rendering. • File opens without errors in Blender 3.6 LTS. If you specialise in realistic animal sculpts and can deliver within two weeks, I’d love to see examples of similar work.

Hi, I understand you need a photo-real, life-size 3D model of an Australian Northern Territory feral water buffalo for a commercial campaign. I will focus on accurate anatomy, muscular shape, horns, hump, hooves, weathered hide and natural Top End colouring. Using your multi-angle references, I will build a high-poly sculpt in Blender, maintain clean topology, set the model to around 1.8 m at the shoulder, and create 4K PBR maps with natural detail and no texture stretching. I will also check the final file in Blender 3.6 LTS and provide FBX or OBJ, the native Blender file, a turntable or screenshot set, and a clear read-me. Full usage rights can be included with the final delivery. I can work toward the two-week deadline and keep you updated through key review stages. Can you confirm whether the supplied photographs cover the exact buffalo specimen, and which texture resolution and render engine should guide the final PBR setup? Please share the reference photographs and any preferred commercial render style so I can match the animal closely from the start. Regards
