Community Call: 3D models of Ivan and Morevna
EDIT: The call is closed. Thank you everyone who participated!
Attention, Blender artists!
We are looking for volunteer Blender modeller who can make a 3D models of our two main characters – Ivan and Morevna. The models are going to be used be used in the Morevna Project Demo and for reference drawing. And yes, we plan to use them in the next parts of Morevna Project.
Models are expected to be:
- Made with Blender.
- Detailed enough, like here or here. Though, the models will be used in long-distance shots only (there will be no close-up face shots), so detalization shouldn’t be too high.
- UV textured (black and white lines are enough).
- Rigged with bones, IK – something like this.
- Intended to use with Blender Freestyle rendering engine. Though, the internal renderer is fine too.
- Provided under the terms of Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 License.
We need models finished by the 15th of August. If you are interested, please contact us!
EDIT: Please take a look at this page for some comments on this call and others alternatives to contribute.

Hi, abhifx!
There is a various problems related with MakeHuman usage in our project. First of all, we don’t need such anatomy detailed model – we need a stylized characters. Also there will be a cloth simulation problem, which we want to avoid by any means.
Finally, MakeHuman have weird mesh license – http://www.makehuman.org/node/320 . I believe it’s not free (as freedom) and for sure it’s not compatible with Creative Commons Attribution 3.0.
