Gig Summary
About this gig
Do you already have a 3D model but it's not ready for printing yet?
I'll help you fix, cut, key, or articulate your model so its fully optimized for 3D printing clean, watertight, and easy to assemble or move.
Using ZBrush and Blender, I ensure every part is cleanly separated, properly keyed, and print-safe for both resin and FDM printers.
Whether it's a character, statue, or action figure I can prepare it for printing, painting, or posing.
What I can do for you:
- Repair non-manifold / broken mesh
- Prepare watertight STL or OBJ
- Cut & key parts for painting or easy printing
- Add articulation joints for movable parts
- Resize or rescale your model for print
- Reorient / hollow / optimize for resin or FDM printers
Perfect for:
- 3D sculptors who need print-ready models
- Toy and figure designers
- Resin or FDM print hobbyists
- 3D artists preparing files for Etsy or production
Let's make your model not just printable but perfectly engineered for painting, posing, and production.

FAQ
What file formats do you accept?
I accept STL, OBJ, FBX, BLEND, or ZTL files. If you have another format, please contact me first.
Can you fix complex or broken meshes?
Yes! I can repair topology, fill holes, merge parts, and make the model watertight and error-free.
What does “cut and key” mean?
It means splitting your model into multiple parts with pegs/slots for easy assembly after printing and painting.
What does “articulate” mean?
It means adding joints so parts can move or rotate (like action figures). I can design simple or advanced joint systems depending on your model.
Can you prepare models for both resin and FDM printing?
Yes. I’ll adjust thickness, orientation, and detail level to match your printer type.
Will I get the STL files ready to print?
Absolutely! You’ll receive clean and print-ready STL (and optionally the source file if requested).
