DESCRIPTION

The Feeder Station is a rustic, game-ready 3D model designed to capture the timeless atmosphere of pastoral simplicity and rural environments. Built in a low-poly style yet enriched with stylized hand-painted details, this asset represents a long, hollowed wooden trough supported by sturdy legs. Its structure evokes the feel of an old farmstead where animals—horses, cattle, or sheep—would gather for their daily feeding, making it a perfect addition to immersive simulation and medieval-themed worlds.

The wooden base is carved from thick, weathered logs, displaying pronounced grain lines and subtle cracks that hint at years of use and exposure to the elements. Its surface has an earthy, lived-in appearance, subtly chipped at the edges and softened with age. Hand-painted textures highlight the natural flow of the wood, with tones of deep brown and mossy green faintly clinging to the undersides, enhancing the sense of realism while keeping performance efficiency in mind. The legs, blocky and seamlessly integrated, give the trough a grounded sturdiness, ensuring it blends harmoniously with other rural props such as fences, barns, or farm tools.

The Feeder Station is not just a background prop—it plays an essential narrative role in world-building. In a medieval village, it could sit outside a stable or castle yard, filled with hay or grain for horses and livestock. In a survival game, it could function as an interactive mechanic for feeding tamed animals. In fantasy settings, it might even be adapted into something more magical—perhaps glowing runes carved into the wood to sustain mythical beasts. This versatility makes it valuable across genres ranging from stylized farming simulators to dark, atmospheric RPGs.

Optimized with a clean topology, this model balances polygon efficiency with visual fidelity, making it lightweight for real-time rendering in large environments. PBR textures at 2K resolution (diffuse, normal, roughness, and metallic) ensure the trough reflects natural lighting conditions, whether it sits in the soft glow of dawn, under the harsh midday sun, or in the moody shadows of a dungeon stable.

The Feeder Station stands as more than just a simple wooden trough—it is a storytelling tool, a symbol of daily rural life, and an environmental detail that adds authenticity and immersion to any project.

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.

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

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.

UV unwrapped model
A UV unwrapped model means its 3D surface is flattened into 2D space, allowing textures to be applied accurately.
