A must-read for clients | How to successfully outsource design or modeling work?

Why are more and more companies choosing to outsource 3D design?

Whether it is game character modeling, product visual rendering, or animation film production,3D design work often requires high professionalism and time investment.

Instead of building an in-house team, many companies and brands choose to outsource to experienced freelancers, which allows them to quickly obtain high-quality work while saving costs and manpower.

Ficuz provides a case-taking platform specifically designed for the 3D field, allowing you to find the right partners faster. But the premise is:You need to clearly write about your needs in order to attract the right people.

Step 1: Write down clearly what you want

Good cooperation starts with a clear commission. The following are the most important elements when writing requirements:

✅ 描述內容要具體

Don’t just write “I need a role model”, add:

• What style? Cartoon or realistic?
• Any reference pictures? Any existing sketches?
• What platform? Games, animations, product displays?

✅ 提出你需要的檔案格式或規格

Different applications use different formats:

• Game development: usually requires FBX, GLTF, texture separation
• Animation: May require full skeleton and animation setup
• Product display: may require high-poly model + light and shadow rendering

The clearer you write, the more time both parties save in communication.

Step 2: Set a budget and time frame

You don’t need to know the correct price at the outset, but you can provide:

• Budget range (e.g. NT$5,000～8,000)
• How many weeks do you hope to complete it? Is there a specific deadline?
• Will the project be delivered in stages? For example, modeling should be done first, and animation should be done later?

This information can help designers quickly assess compliance and reduce ineffective communication.

Step 3: Evaluate and select the right designer

In FicuzCase receiver"Or when you receive a submission, you will see the designer's:

• Portfolio Link
• Past transaction records and ratings
• Proposal content and estimate

💡 suggestion: When looking at a work, in addition to style, you should also pay attention to the completeness of details and the quality of delivery.
Designers with a track record of sales and high evaluations are usually more stable.

Step 4: Keep your communication brief and clear

You don’t need to know 3D, nor do you need to understand every technology, just:

• Respond to designers’ questions based on needs
• Clearly confirm the number of revisions, delivery items, and payment milestones
• Try to provide reference pictures or example links

Establishing a cooperative process that is comfortable for both parties is more important than any clauses.

How does Ficuz ensure your cooperation experience?

• All designers have public reviews and portfolios
• The payment process is recorded to ensure the transaction security of both parties
• If you have any questions, you can contact the platform for assistance to avoid disputes

You can also add designers you have long-term cooperation with to your tracking list so that you can contact them first when there are projects in the future.

Conclusion: Find the right person, cooperation is the accelerator

As long as the demand is clear, the quotation is reasonable and the communication is smooth,Outsourcing 3D design work can be very efficient and satisfying.
