3D Modeling Artist

Adnet Global; Mumbai; On-site; INR 600,000 - 900,000; Full time

Job summary

Adnet Global in Mumbai is seeking a skilled 3D artist to create high-quality models from references and photographs. You will match shapes, proportions, and scale, using camera/image matching when exact dimensions are unavailable, and maintain clean topology for real-time visualization.

The role requires a strong eye for detail, experience with quad-based modeling, and collaboration with production teams to meet deadlines.

Qualifications

• Strong 3D modeling and topology fundamentals with proficiency in Autodesk Maya or Blender.
• Ability to create accurate models from photographic references and perform camera/image matching when dimensions are unavailable.
• Good understanding of UV unwrapping, UV layouts with minimal distortion, and optimization.
• Experience creating game-ready/real-time assets with optimized polygon counts and clean mesh structures.
• Strong attention to detail balancing accuracy, quality, and performance.
• Basic understanding of PBR texturing and real-time workflows is advantageous.
• Experience with Unreal Engine, Three.js Viewer, product visualization, or e-commerce assets is a plus.

Responsibilities

• Create high-quality 3D models from reference images, photographs, sketches, and other visual references.
• Match the shape, proportions, scale, and overall form of real-world objects accurately.
• Use camera matching/image matching when exact dimensions are unavailable.
• Create clean, efficient, quad-based topology suitable for real-time and visualization applications.
• Maintain optimized polygon counts while achieving required level of detail.
• Create edge loops and supporting geometry where required.
• Ensure clean mesh structure with no duplicate vertices or broken topology.
• Organize scenes and assets with clear naming conventions.
• Work in Maya or Blender and maintain organized native files.
• Collaborate with artists, supervisors, and production teams to meet quality and delivery timelines.
• Review and refine models based on feedback while maintaining timelines.

Job description

Skills Required:

• Strong 3D modeling and topology fundamentals, with proficiency in Autodesk Maya or Blender.
• Ability to create accurate models from photographic/image references, including camera and perspective matching when dimensions are unavailable.
• Good understanding of UV unwrapping, 01 UV layouts with minimal stretching and distortion., and optimization.
• Experience creating game-ready/real-time assets with optimized polygon counts and clean mesh structures.
• Strong attention to detail with the ability to balance accuracy, quality, and performance.
• Basic understanding of PBR texturing and real-time workflows is an advantage.
• Experience with Unreal Engine, Three.js Viewer, product visualization, or e-commerce assets is a plus.

Key Responsibilities:

• Create high-quality 3D models from reference images, photographs, sketches, and other visual references.
• Accurately match the shape, proportions, scale, and overall form of real-world objects.
• Use camera matching / image matching techniques when exact dimensions are not available.
• Create clean, efficient, and primarily quad-based topology suitable for real-time and visualization applications.
• Maintain optimized polygon counts while achieving the required level of detail.
• Create appropriate edge loops and supporting geometry where required.
• Ensure clean mesh structure with no duplicate vertices, hidden/unnecessary geometry, broken faces, or problematic topology.
• Organize scenes and assets using clear, consistent, and generic naming conventions.
• Work in Autodesk Maya or Blender and maintain well-organized native working files.
• Collaborate with artists, supervisors, and production teams to meet quality and delivery requirements.
• Review and refine models based on feedback while maintaining production timelines.

Preferred Software:

Primary: Autodesk Maya / Blender.

Additional: Familiarity with Unreal Engine, Substance Painter, Three.js, or other real-time 3D tools is an advantage.
