golden finch 3d model

A hyper-realistic American goldfinch (Spinus tristis) captured mid-flight with wings fully extended in a shallow upward sweep. The body is compact and aerodynamic, chest slightly forward, tail subtly fanned for balance. Primary and secondary feathers are clearly layered with accurate vane thickness and gentle curvature suitable for printing. Head slightly angled forward with a small conical beak, smooth eye sockets (no glassy reflections). Surface detail emphasizes feather structure over texture noise—clean, sculptural feather groups with softened edges to avoid fragile tips. Legs tucked tightly against the body. No motion blur. No perch, no base attached.
