FECM - A free and customizable 3D character model

I’ve finally finished a fairly presentable version of the character model I’ve been working on recently.It’s a simple and relatively easy to use character model that I’m making free to use for everyone under the CC-BY-SA license.

I made this project in hopes of creating a standard easy-to-use character model for anyone on the forum who would like to develop 3D games, which are currently very rare. By having a standard character model project that is regularly updated and hopefully contributed to regularly, we can make 3D game development accessible even to those who don’t know a thing about modeling, and hopefully improve game quality as a whole across the forum.

The model is gender-neutral but can be made to look more masculine or feminine with shape keys and swapping out the head, eyes, eyelashes, and eyebrows, though I am mainly focusing on the feminine side as that’s what I’m personally most interested in.

Weight stages are currently WIP but there should be chubby and fat shape keys ready in the coming days or weeks.

Here’s a small demonstration of what can be done with it at the moment:

Base model with a simple test pose:

Max hip size; Medium breast size:

Above with max breast size:

The model will mainly be made to work with the Godot game engine and most future usage guides will also be centered around it. I encourage you to try it out if you haven’t already. It is my favorite as someone who has tried several different game engines.

I can guarantee to you all that this character model will continue to be maintained and updated by me regularly, as this is also the character model I will be using in my new project that I plan to release some time in the coming weeks or months. It is a remake of Faehna, titled Faehna Engine, which is also what the model is named after (FECM = Faehna Engine Character Model). The new game aims to be a “fetish world creator” rather than a typical game like before, and thus a lot of content has been cut in favor of being able to customize the game using your own custom assets.

Well that was a really long text wall so here’s your quick feature list:

  • Character model
  • Fully rigged
  • Swappable heads, eyes, eyelashes, and eyebrows
  • Somewhat swappable body
    • Not entirely intended but it works
    • Good for furries or others who need unique bodies
  • Adjustable breast size
  • Adjustable hip size

Coming soon:

  • 2 BBB weight stages
    • Stands for boobs, belly, and butt/thighs
    • Each one is separate so you can have unique fat distributions
    • One chubby stage and one fat stage
  • Basic hair
  • Textures

Future features:

  • Switch breast size to “breast fullness”
    • Uses stages in the same way weight does
    • Support for bigger sizes (intended for lactation)
    • As in, well, really really really big
    • Support for high weights as well
  • Weight stages up to near-blob
  • Belly fullness
    • Pregnancy, vore, stuffing, etc
    • May add a way to make it look like struggling inside as well for vore fans
  • Full clothing/accessory/body “library” for you to customize characters with
  • Simple character creator made in Godot to make designing a character easy
  • Basic animation set for walking, running, jumping, falling, etc

If you are interested in contributing, or you just have a question, come join the Discord. If you’re an experienced modeler then I would be more than happy to work with you to help developers of the forum bring their own 3D game ideas to life.

The .blend file for the character model can be downloaded from the GitLab repository. You can reset the pose by selecting the rig, going into the animation tab, and pressing A, and then going to Pose → Reset Transform → All.

Anyways, that’s about all. If you would like to support me and my projects then please come check out my Patreon. I’m currently in a very rough situation financially and can’t afford to pay for my medications so even a small subscription helps. You’ll get some extra benefits as well, possibly even including some “very interesting” real life rewards. It’s more than just games this time. :slight_smile:
