Dampwood Termite Soldier
Created in July 2016, this dampwood termite soldier captures the armored head, mandibles, and segmented body of the species with a balance of realism and performance. Built in Blender 2.77 and shaded for Cycles, it’s suited for close-ups, educational stills, and nature scenes.
- Topology: 5,718 polygons / 5,688 vertices
- UVs: Non-overlapping, clean unwrap
- Textures/Maps: Color, bump, subsurface scattering, and transparency
- Formats: Blender 2.77 (
.blend), FBX, OBJ - Rigging: Not rigged; ready for your own rig or pose workflow
Workflow Notes
The native .blend is set up for Cycles with physically plausible materials: soft translucency in the cuticle, gloss breakup for shell detail, and fine variation along antennae and legs. Exports preserve UVs and texture links; start in Blender for best results, then move to your DCC of choice.
Usage note from the original listing: this product is not permitted for stock-imaging or stock-illustration marketplaces.
Why It Works
Termites usually appear in swarms; this mesh is reasonably low-poly for instancing while maintaining convincing macro detail through maps. It’s ideal for biology demos, pest-control visuals, and documentary-style macro renders.
