DESCRIPTION

The Bat Candle Holder is a hauntingly atmospheric 3D model that blends gothic artistry with functional design, making it a perfect addition to dark fantasy environments, horror-inspired interiors, or stylized medieval settings. Sculpted with meticulous attention to form, this piece transforms an ordinary candle holder into a brooding relic, adorned with a menacing bat motif that exudes both mystery and power.

The central feature of the model is the bat figure, its wings outstretched in protective arcs, creating a natural cradle for the candle it supports. The bat’s sculpted details—sharp ears, angular wings, and textured body—capture the essence of gothic craftsmanship, evoking imagery of castles, crypts, and shadowed cathedrals. Its design is not only decorative but symbolic, representing the bat as a guardian of flame, a creature that thrives in darkness while illuminating the unknown.

The surface materials are designed with PBR textures, showcasing aged metal with subtle weathering, tarnished edges, and faint scratches that suggest centuries of use. The candleholder base is sturdy and balanced, with ornate flourishes that connect seamlessly to the bat’s form, creating a unified, almost ceremonial artifact. The wax of the candle can be represented with optional texture variations, from fresh and smooth to dripped and worn, adding to the model’s versatility in storytelling.

Optimized for real-time rendering and game-ready performance, this asset maintains efficiency in polygon count while preserving intricate details. It is equally suited for close-up cinematic renders, immersive VR scenes, or environmental storytelling in games, where props like this become focal points of ambiance. The Bat Candle Holder thrives in contexts that demand gothic elegance—whether perched in a haunted castle corridor, sitting atop an alchemist’s desk, or used as ritual decor in a dark fantasy temple.

The model embodies a careful balance between artistry and usability. With its sinister elegance, it offers not just a functional light-bearing object but a story-rich prop that deepens immersion in any world it inhabits.

Geometry
No N-gons
N-gons are polygons with five or more sides which might cause issues in certain processes like rendering or animation. Learn more
No faceted geometry
Faceted geometry uses flat surfaces without smoothing, which can look unrealistic on curves.
Learn more
Manifold geometry
Manifold geometry ensures all surfaces are properly connected, avoiding issues like edges shared by more than two faces.

Textures & material
PBR textures
PBR textures simulate how light interacts with materials, making the model look realistic under different lighting.
Required PBR textures:
- Base Color
- Roughness
- Metalness
- Normal
Learn more
No embed textures
Embedded textures are stored inside the model file, increasing its size and sometimes causing compatibility issues.
Learn more
Square textures
Texture aspect ratio is the width-to-height ratio of a texture. Expected texture aspect ratio: 1:1
Learn more
Power of 2 texture sizes
Textures with dimensions in power of two (e.g. 512x512px, 1024x1024px) are used to optimize performance and memory usage.

UVs & naming
No UV overlaps
UVs overlap when multiple points on the 3D model's surface are mapped to the same point on the UV island causing texture stretching.
Learn more
UV unwrapped model
A UV unwrapped model means its 3D surface is flattened into 2D space, allowing textures to be applied accurately.
