Once the photography session is complete, all the images are computed, and the result is RAW scan asset. That is the first 3D model that is created from the calculation of all photos. This RAW scan usually runs into the tens of millions of polygons and could have some problems, especially around areas with hair. However, when we present our RAW scans here, they have gone through some basic optimization and fix geometry. Usually, they are exported at 2 million polygons each.

The Cleaned scan ( or retopologized ) as we call it has a different geometry in quads that is now in the thousands of polygons, not millions. It is also gone through a cleanup of all problem areas. This makes this product a lot easier to use and better to look.

The PBR stands for physically based rendering. The textures and materials are prepared so that the model is compatible with a wide range of different 3D software and engines with no difference in the way the product looks. Also, the PBR model’s geometry is created in a way that the asset is suitable for rigging and animation. Further, the PBR 3D model is still carefully cleaned and from the problem scan data around the hair and the cap that the actors are photographed in. The detail on the head is then recreated in those areas. Additional maps like glossiness, specular, normal and displace are created, and a unique SSS material is applied to the asset. All of that results in a very high-end product that you can instantly use.

The animation-ready asset has a rig in place. The topology is created so that there are no stretchings or geometry issues when moving the elements of the model around during animation.

The sample models are free for personal and commercial use with credit mentioned on any social media. This includes R&D projects or the development of a commercial project like a game, promo video or animation. However, we do not allow resale or free distribution on other websites, either of the original or any derivatives from the model. Please let us know if you are still determining whether you can use our samples in your project; we will be happy to assist you.

Yes, we do! We can provide you with a custom sample based on your specifications. Just email us through the contact form, and we will get back to you.

Yes, you can. In our sample selection, we have provided different versions of models that you might find helpful. For real-time applications, using any 3d Human model with retopology is best to keep the polycount low. Therefore, we have provided full-body, head, hand and clothing models with retopology.

Yes, you can. Our models come free to use for commercial and personal projects. If you have any questions regarding permitted use, please let us know.
