About this model

This bottlenose dolphin is caught mid-glide, its streamlined body gently arched, pectoral fins angled outward and the tail flukes trailing behind. The short beak and rounded melon of the forehead give it the friendly face everyone recognizes, while the coloring stays simple: slate grey on the back fading to a lighter grey and nearly white belly. The body is made of large, smooth facets that read well in blue underwater lighting, and a tiny palette texture keeps it ready for real-time use. It suits reef levels, ocean exploration games, aquarium scenes and marine education apps. Tip: animate it along a spline with a slow up-and-down wave and add a second copy slightly behind for a playful pair.

Good for

  • Reef level in an ocean game
  • Aquarium or marine park scene
  • Marine education app
  • Swimming companion in an underwater level

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 (0.94 m = 94 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
