Grand Zoo

How it was made

The brief given to 1DesignTool's “3D object” template:

A charming, richly detailed zoo as a large tabletop diorama (stylised-realistic animals, warm and inviting), laid out around a looping path from an arched entrance gate (no text). The ANIMALS are the heroes — each a properly sculpted creature with correct anatomy, readable faces and fur/feather/scale detail modelled in geometry: - Giant panda habitat: an adult panda sitting and chewing bamboo, plus a cub on a wooden climbing frame; dense bamboo grove, rocks, a small stream. - Capybara hot-spring: three capybaras soaking/lounging in a steaming warm pool edged with smooth stones, one with a little mandarin orange on its head. - Raccoon woodland den: a raccoon family (two adults, two kits) around hollow logs and a tree stump, one washing food at a little stream. - Llama paddock: two llamas (one white, one brown-and-cream, fluffy fleece) behind a wooden rail fence with a small red barn and hay bales. - Dragon enclosure: the showpiece — a large friendly-looking dragon (horns, scaled body, folded bat wings, long tail, glowing eyes) curled on a volcanic rock outcrop with a lava-glow pool, behind a tall stone wall with iron railings. - Giraffe yard with two giraffes reaching into a tree; an elephant with a mud pool; a penguin pool with ~10 penguins on ice rocks; a flamingo lagoon with ~8 flamingos. Around them: paved paths, benches, ornate lamp posts, a ticket kiosk and a café with umbrellas (no signage), flower beds, trees, hedges, a small tram train on rails. No people needed (at most a few tiny simple visitor figures). Materials named for what they are (e.g. "panda fur white", "panda fur black", "capybara fur", "llama fleece", "dragon scales", "lava glow", "bamboo", "water", "paving"). No text, logos or signage. Motion: a seamless 12 s loop — animals breathe and do small idle actions (panda chews, capybaras blink/soak, raccoon washes food, llamas turn heads, dragon's chest rises and tail tip sways, eyes/lava glow pulse, penguins waddle a step, flamingos shift), steam rises from the hot spring, the tram moves along its loop. Hard requirement: the exported GLB must contain between 2,000,000 and 2,200,000 triangles of REAL, VISIBLE modelled detail — measure it before delivering. PADDING IS FORBIDDEN AND WILL BE MEASURED: no generating triangles to hit a number, no flat subdivided grids, no hidden or invisible geometry, no meaningless subdivision. Rough budget: dragon ≈ 300k; each panda ≈ 120k; each llama ≈ 100k; giraffes and elephant ≈ 120–150k each; each capybara ≈ 60k; each raccoon ≈ 40k; penguins ≈ 12k each; flamingos ≈ 15k each; bamboo, trees and foliage clusters, rocks, fences, buildings, tram and props make up the rest. Keep the GLB under 60 MB: index all geometry, instance repeated items (bamboo stalks, fence posts, penguins, flamingos, trees), no image textures. In meta.notes list each main element with its triangle count.
