2026 Year of the Horse Limited Edition Chibi Anthropomorphic Horse Figurine

This figurine takes the 2026 Year of the Bingwu Horse as its central theme, employing a creative Q-version anthropomorphic design approach. It deeply integrates the characteristics of the traditional zodiac horse with a cute cartoon style, resulting in a cultural and creative figurine 3D model that combines traditional Chinese cultural connotations with modern aesthetic appeal. It is suitable for various production processes such as 3D printing, resin casting, and injection molding for mass production.

I. Overall Shape and Proportions

1. Body Design: The overall design adopts exaggerated Q-version rounded proportions, with a full, spherical torso and a height-to-width ratio of approximately 1.2:1. This breaks from the realistic body proportions of a horse, creating a cute and endearing visual effect.
2. Anthropomorphic Structure: It retains the horse's head features, while the body and limbs adopt an anthropomorphic design with short arms and legs. The hands are simplified three-fingered shapes, and the feet resemble rounded horse hooves. The overall posture is an upright stance with a stable center of gravity, suitable for displaying as a figurine.

II. Detailed Feature Design

1. Head Details:
- The horse's head has smooth contours, a shortened and rounded face. The eye area is left blank (for subsequent painting and detailing), the nostrils are small oval indentations, and the mouth lines are soft, emphasizing its cuteness.
- The mane adopts a layered, three-dimensional shape, extending from the top of the head to both sides of the neck. Each strand of mane is sculpted with curves and textures, and the edges are wavy, increasing the model's sense of layering and dynamism. The mane's length is approximately 1/2 of the head's height, complementing the overall proportions.
2. Body and Limb Details:
- The torso surface is smooth with no extra textures, featuring only subtle curved transitions at the shoulders and waist to enhance the rounded feel of the spherical body.
- The arms hang naturally at the sides of the body, with slight joint outlines at the elbows and wrists. The hands are simple in shape, with short, stout fingers and moderate spacing. The legs are short and thick, with soft contour lines at the knees and ankles. The hooves are rounded polygons, connecting naturally with the legs. The overall limb proportions are harmonious, fitting the visual aesthetic of a Q-version figurine.
