Does ShapeUnseen accept small or micro-projects?

Absolutely. We handle micro-tasks (such as a single 3D asset build, a minor texture re-map, or quick video edits) as well as multi-week, large-scale custom deliverables.

How do I submit a freelance brief or project quote request?

Key capabilities include hard-surface sub-d modeling, PBR texturing, green screen compositing, motion design, educational roadmap creation, and scriptwriting/storyboarding.

What are ShapeUnseen Educational Services?

ShapeUnseen provides structured learning roadmaps and technical modules covering 3D modeling pipelines, software workflows (Autodesk Maya, 3ds Max, Blender, Substance Painter, Adobe Suite), and pre-production strategy.

Do educational modules include downloadable project files?

Yes. Modules include downloadable source files, base meshes, UV templates, and exercise assets for hands-on practice.

• Do I need to give attribution or credit when using ShapeUnseen assets in commercial products?

  Standard commercial licenses generally do not require public attribution, though giving credit is always welcomed and appreciated in major titles or film productions.

• Can I resell, re-distribute, or sub-license assets bought from the marketplace?

  No. Downloaded assets cannot be redistributed or resold as standalone digital files on third-party platforms, even if modified. They must be integrated into a finished product like a video game, video, or brand campaign.

• Who retains ownership of custom freelance assets built for my company?

  For custom freelance contracts, full intellectual property and commercial copyright transfer to the client upon final project delivery and settlement.

• Are ShapeUnseen 3D assets optimized for real-time game engines like Unreal Engine 5 and Unity?

• What render engines are supported for the 3D studio setups and models?

  Assets and scene files are compatible with popular render engines including KeyShot, Cycles, Eevee, Arnold, and V-Ray.

• Are vector graphics fully editable and scalable for high-resolution print?

  Yes. Vector files are supplied in vector-native formats (AI, EPS, SVG) with organized layers, allowing unlimited scaling without loss of resolution.

• What payment methods are supported on the platform?

  The marketplace and portal support major credit/debit cards, secure digital wallets, and international payment gateways for global client convenience.

• How are custom freelance projects priced and billed?

  Projects can be priced either on a fixed-fee project basis (ideal for defined deliverables) or an hourly/milestone rate for ongoing contract work.

• What is the typical turnaround time for custom micro-projects?

  Minor tasks like texture adjustments, asset format conversions, or logo animations can often be delivered within 24 to 48 hours depending on queue volume.

• Are the web utility tools inside the portal free to use?

  Many basic web apps and asset previews within the portal are accessible for free, while advanced features or automated generators are linked with marketplace access.

• Can external creators submit and sell their own digital assets on ShapeUnseen?
