3D ART OUTSOURCING CHECKLIST FOR PROJECT ESTIMATION

Acquiring the necessary details upfront for a quote on your 3D art outsourcing project is not just a procedural formality, but a strategic move that greatly enhances the efficiency of your pre-production process. This initial step of information gathering is fundamental in setting the stage for a smooth and well-coordinated project flow, saving valuable time and resources as you move forward.

GENERAL 3D MODELING INQUIRIES

Concept Art Requirement: Is the concept art already developed on your end, or do you require our expertise in this area? If you have existing concept art, kindly share it with us, particularly for projects involving stylized 3D characters.
Software Preferences: What specific software should be used for model creation and exportation?
Model Origin: Are we creating the model from scratch, or is it based on an existing one? For existing models, please provide them for our analysis. If not available, close visual references are essential to understand the desired outcome for each unit, item, or character.
Polycount Specification: What is the required polygon count for each model?
UV Mapping: Is UV mapping a necessity for your project?
Retopology Needs: Do you require retopology for the models?
Object Hierarchy and Pivots: Are there specific requirements for the hierarchy of the objects or their pivot points?
Level of Detail (LODs): Are LODs needed? If yes, please specify the number and any particular requirements or constraints.
Game Engine Compatibility: Which game engine will be used for this project?

PBR AND TEXTURES

Map Quantification: How many maps are needed per material? Providing a list is beneficial.
Texture Requirements: Do you need seamless textures or a standard procedural material?
Texture Size: What are the dimensions for each texture in pixels?
Texture Detailing: Describe the desired level of detail and quality for textures, with visual references where possible.
Scene Analysis: If you have a completed scene implemented in the engine, sharing it along with the textures can be invaluable for our review and analysis.

3D RIGGING

Bone Count: What is the total number of bones required for the rig?
Inverse Kinematics: Is IK (inverse kinematics) necessary for your project?

3D ANIMATION AND VFX

Animation Software/Engine: Which software or game engine should be used for animations?
Animation List: Provide a detailed list of required animations (e.g., idle, attack, jump) with corresponding visual references.
Animation Duration: What is the expected duration for each animation in seconds?
Animation Looping: Should animations be looped?
Additional Animation Requirements: Specify any other needs, such as skinning, blend-shapes, and their specific details.
VFX Needs: If VFX are required, please list them along with visual references.
Particle Limitations: Is there a restriction on the total number of particles?
