Hi @Jix3D
any of the typical design marketplaces found on the internet, or your own website
For shopify specifically https://www.shopify.com/3d > partners program > partner slack > do your networking with other partners.
Search the app store for 3D modeling apps and follow the breadcrumbs there to see if any provide bespoke services and in turn maybe possibly perhaps outsource work.
Since you have a forum account setup notifications for 3D modeling keywords, just be aware IMO it’s pretty rare for a merchant specifically looking for a 3d artist on a forum so it is not something to bank on.
Then when/if eligible https://help.shopify.com/en/partners/directory/join
Merchant side of things to review

Good Hunting.
Hey @Jix3D ,
Many Shopify store owners use Kickflip to build product configurators, often based on 3D models and renderings. Here’s an example :
