About this model

This kidney is cut lengthwise, so the flat face shows the full internal structure while the back keeps the smooth, dark red capsule. Along the outer edge runs the lighter cortex, dotted with tiny red and blue vessels, and inside it sit the striped renal pyramids arranged like a fan. At the centre, the creamy renal pelvis branches into its calyces and narrows into the ureter, which exits at the bottom. The renal artery in red and the vein in blue leave from the hilum, cushioned by yellow fatty tissue. The clear colour separation makes it easy to label, whether for nephrology lessons, dialysis explainers or health apps, and the high polygon count keeps the silhouette smooth even at full-screen size, and you can bake it down for lighter scenes. Tip: lay it cut face up under a soft top light for textbook-style diagrams.

Good for

  • Nephrology or urology lesson
  • Dialysis or kidney health explainer
  • Labelled diagram for e-learning
  • Clinic or health app visual

Engine import notes

Unity GLB · FBX

Import the GLB with the glTFast package or use the FBX. 1 m in the file = 1 Unity unit.

Unreal Engine FBX

Use the FBX. The model is built in metres. Unreal works in centimetres and converts on import, so it arrives at real size (0.12 m = 12 cm).

Godot 4 GLB · FBX

Drag the GLB into the FileSystem dock. Godot 4 imports it directly, with materials. The FBX works too (Godot 4.3+ imports it natively).

Blender BLEND · GLB

Open the .blend directly, or import the GLB via File › Import › glTF 2.0.

Use it in: UnityUnrealGodotBlender
