Skinning 3D Model Services

Our skinning services for 3D models

3D-Ace excels at all the technical and sometimes complicated aspects of animation, and skinning is no exception. Very few providers can perform the task at the same high level as our skinning 3D model company, considering how difficult it is to reconcile the skeleton created for a model during rigging with the 3D mesh created for it during modeling.

How we create 3d model skinning

Though the skinning process is perhaps not as time-intensive as modeling or texturing, we still approach it with the utmost care and responsibility. Our skinning 3D model agency avoids any bottlenecks by performing thorough review and making sure all completed assets are up to par.

Painting weights

Once the rig has been imported into skinning software, we remove the default weights set for the joints and skeletal parts and begin distributing the weight of the target’s body.

Adjusting joints

Sometimes, weights are painted unequally and movements end up looking wacky, and sometimes, the movements are intended to look uneven. The only way to get the joint weights right is to perform testing and apply minor tweaks.

Fixing anomalies

Considering the free range of motion afforded to most models and their parts, there are bound to be anomalies of movement that were not expected. So the final stage involves replicating various animation scenarios, finding and removing the anomalies.

OUR BUSINESS MODELS

Fixed Price

You set the budget, we stick to it. The full scope, requirements, terms, and specifications are agreed upon before the start of the project and can’t be changed later.

Time & Material

This flexible model calculates cost based on time and material spent, leaving room for changes to the budget and scope of the project over time.

Dedicated Team

A complete team (or a single expert from our staff) joins your existing specialists on the project. This team stays under your management and can be scaled up/down over time.

WHY CHOOSE US FOR SKINNING 3D MODEL

Our skinning 3D model studio goes into the process knowing exactly what needs to be done and the fastest way to do it. Also, we are not one of those companies that accepts a project and goes silent until it’s done. Instead, we make sure that you can always see how it is progressing and provide meaningful feedback that will inform any changes on our part.

Attention to detail

To make movements as smooth, lifelike, and natural as possible, we carefully calculate the weight of each bone and vertice, especially in groups and areas where movement is continuous.

Freedom to choose

We hardly limit our customers to skinning tasks, and additionally offer services associated with previous stages (concepting, modeling, rigging) and those that happen after skinning (animation, integration, renders).

Get a polished product

3D-Ace has an amazing QA team that thoroughly reviews all content created by our team and makes sure that every bone and weight is perfect before the content is sent your way.

OUR TECHNOLOGY EXPERTISE IN SKINNING 3D MODEL

Using top-notch software like Maya, Blender, and 3Ds Max helps us achieve most skinning objectives, but this powerful software is only wielded capably due to our artists’ long experience working on skins and related 3D assets. This makes us one of the top choices for skinning 3D model outsourcing.

FAQ

Can you assist us with other aspects of animation besides skinning?

Skinning is just one bullet point in the long list of skills mastered by our artists, and certainly not the only thing our studio has to offer. So yes, you are welcome to share more tasks with us, or start with one aspect of your project and scale up over time. We try to be as flexible as possible in addressing your business needs.

How fast are you able to perform skinning for an average character model?

It will depend on the complexity of the rig – how many bones, joints, vertices are configured. It might take several hours, or several days. What we can guarantee is that we will do it at peak efficiency, and better than our competitors. We have a very talented team of animators on our staff, which will apply their lengthy experience and make your project the #1 priority.
