Hi All, 

I hope you are all having wonderful Satrudays. 

I am hoping for some advice/tips/tricks/suggestions... 
I am trying to make it look like a 3d model tractor is actually moving, and therefore i need to make the wheels look like they are spinning. 
I am a novice to the world of 3d so please forgive me if i am asking something obvious or stupid! 
I have downloaded a 3d tractor glb but can not find one with out wheels or with seperate wheels that i can then animate sperately. 
I have tried laying wheels over the top of the animating them but this looks more then a little hockey. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions, seen any tutorilas (i've googled) or anywhere i can find models with elements as spetate glb files? 

 

Thank you for your help and your time.

hi there! can't you just import the model into Blender and save the wheel to a new file and export it?
It isn't a hard task to do, I guess a begginer can do it.

Hi, thank you for taking the time to try to help me! I did download blender and try to work that out before posting... i honestly couldn't work it out as it was all one layer but i'll keep trying, thank you.

I see, if it's in the same layer is a little bit trickier.
If u can post the file here, I may do that for you.
