Given what I've shared, what I know (most importantly what I DON'T know!), Could any of you please give me a "general idea" as to how/if this project can be created using 3Dcoat? (I'm hoping to achieve building this in the voxel room as I totally "relate" (fits my creating previous works by hand), to what I've seen in the tutorials and the ability to add separate features. There's a second image with a "see-through" view of one of those body segments which is want I'm hoping to create in 3Dcoat.(I exaggerated the curvature to illustrate thatt here are not many straight edges, but there are flat plates.)Īfter watching the sketch video tutorial where the user imports top, side and front views and then "fills" (?) with clay, I couldn't watch enough tutorials! This is EXACTLY what I'm hoping to apply to create my sculpture! LOL! I also LOVE the concept of working with Voxels! On the side view concept sketch, note that all body segments and fins will be articulated with LOTS of external moving details that are not shown. I've attached two images that will give you a rough idea of what I'm going to create. If you go to the aircraft website, look under videos, scroll down to Dream Cycles Salmon Flight, Copernicus and Trickle, click on the image and they will link you to Vimeo videos of a few of my kinetic sculptures in action and give you an idea of the approach I'm taking with this Steam-Punk kinetic fish sculpture. I have my eyes on the Wolf, Axiom Dual 3D printer ($5k), and can see how combining these "new" tools with my background and experience with physical model making, sculpting, machining, molding, casting, vacuum-forming etc.,will change everything about how I create in the future! I now see it's time for a MAJOR change! I now have a 3D CNC router (27" X 27" X 7") and shopping for a scanner. Speed Racer, Masters of the Universe, Max Steel, Spiderman, Superman, etc.) ALL created by hand! (No CNC!) I'm also a prototype designer/developer (mostly toys), for companies like Mattel and Hasbro (Created most of the Batmobiles for Mattel. First: I'm TOTALLY new to this program! Just discovered it last week! (Currently working on two client prototypes and haven't downloaded the trial version until I can create a block of time to spend learning (since the trial version is only for 30 days.), before purchasing 3Dcoat.įor over 25 years, I've been a special effects artist (Not CGI, but rather creating physical models and props), for films like The 5th Element, Star Trek IX, The Power Rangers etc.
