I have a raw 3D scan of a head-and-shoulders bust that I’d like turned into a polished digital sculpture I can eventually 3D-print as a personal memento. The likeness is already there; what I need is an experienced digital sculptor who can: • Clean the mesh (remove artefacts, close holes, optimise topology) • Sharpen the key facial features and hair while keeping the overall look moderately detailed—not hyper-realistic, but more than just basic forms • Add subtle surface refinement so the final model will read well at tabletop size • Prepare a watertight, print-ready file (STL or OBJ) with the correct scale preserved I’ll supply the original scan plus reference photos. Please work in ZBrush, Blender, or a comparable sculpting tool and let me know which you prefer. When you’re done I’d like the final sculpt file, the decimated print file, and a few turnaround screenshots for quick review. Acceptance criteria: model is watertight, under 1 million polygons for printing, and faithfully captures the provided likeness with the agreed moderate level of detail.

Hi, I went through your details and this is a scan cleanup and production sculpting task which I can handle with proper print readiness in mind. I can take your raw bust scan and rebuild it into a clean, optimized digital sculpture by removing artifacts, fixing topology issues, and refining facial structure while preserving likeness accuracy. I will enhance key facial and hair forms with controlled sculpting detail so it reads clearly at tabletop scale, and ensure the final model is watertight, properly scaled, and suitable for 3D printing under your polygon constraints. I’ve done similar scan refinement and print prep work before and can share relevant examples once we connect in chat. Before I start, should the final finish lean closer to a realistic portrait or a slightly stylized sculpted bust look? Best Regards, Muskan

Hey, I can clean your 3D scan, rebuild the surface properly, and refine facial features so it keeps the original likeness but becomes a clean, print-ready sculpt suitable for a physical bust. The focus will be mesh cleanup, controlled detail enhancement (not over-sculpted), and watertight topology so the final STL holds up properly when printed at tabletop scale. Before I start, do you want a slightly stylised finish or strictly faithful realism based only on the scan? Atik

Turning a raw scan into a meaningful printed sculpture is mostly about preserving likeness while refining the model where scans usually fail—surface noise, weak facial definition, and print issues. My focus is keeping the character of the original scan intact while creating a cleaner and more readable sculpt at tabletop scale. I can process the scan through a workflow covering: • Mesh cleanup (artefacts removal, hole repair, topology optimization) • Refinement of facial features and hair detail while maintaining a moderate sculpt level • Surface enhancement so smaller printed details read clearly • Watertight print preparation with preserved scale accuracy • Polygon optimization below your target while maintaining quality Deliverables: • Final sculpt source file (ZBrush/Blender workflow) • Optimized STL/OBJ print file • Decimated print-ready version (<1M polygons) • Turnaround screenshots for review The goal is not hyper-realism, but a balanced sculpt that keeps likeness strong and prints cleanly without losing important features. Portfolio https://www.freelancer.com/u/RezaAnsaripour?frm=RezaAnsaripour&sb=t Please share the scan and reference photos so I can evaluate mesh quality and begin immediately. Respectfully, Reza
