DESCRIPTION

Ultra-realistic 3D model of a kintsugi heart sculpture, designed as a powerful and emotional symbol of love, healing, and resilience. The piece is rendered in smooth, glossy ceramic with a soft, pale blue-gray base color—resembling porcelain or fine china—that provides a serene backdrop for the intricate details. The surface is adorned with delicate, golden floral patterns that flow across the heart’s curves, adding elegance and warmth to its form.

The most striking feature is the network of cracks that run across the heart’s surface, each one filled with luminous gold—a direct homage to the Japanese art of kintsugi, which celebrates imperfection and repair. These golden veins highlight the fractures rather than hiding them, transforming damage into beauty and strength. At the base, small shards of ceramic lie scattered on the ground, suggesting a recent break or ongoing mending process.

This high-fidelity digital asset captures the essence of emotional depth and artistic expression, making it ideal for use in interior design, art installations, or as a symbolic element in projects focused on relationships, recovery, and self-love. It can also serve as a reference for artists, designers, or animators exploring themes of vulnerability, transformation, and the beauty of brokenness.

The 3D model includes full PBR materials—albedo, roughness, metallic, normal, ambient occlusion, and specular maps—for photorealistic rendering in Blender, Maya, 3ds Max, Unreal Engine, Unity, or Cinema 4D. These materials simulate accurate light interaction, including reflection on the glossy surfaces, subsurface scattering in translucent areas, and shadow depth across fractures.

The geometry is optimized for both high-resolution renders and real-time applications, featuring clean topology, precise UV mapping, and efficient polygon distribution. The model supports animation, allowing for effects like rotation, lighting changes, or integration into cinematic sequences. It is ready for integration into virtual reality experiences, augmented reality apps, digital galleries, or interactive educational platforms.

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.
Learn more
Assigned materials
Materials are applied to the 3D model to allow visualize a model's surface properties and appearance.
Learn more
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.
