One thing I see quite often nowadays in the 3D WAYWO thread is people 3D printing their creations. Perhaps a 3D printing subforum could be created, either in General or under the 3D game art headers? That could be a place to show off 3D prints, ask questions, give advice, etcetera.
I own a 3d printing company. We do everything in our power to keep costs as low as possible, but the quality of the prints might not be up to what you're looking for. We primarily do prototyping, so the prints aren't showroom-quality. But they're decent. More information and pictures of prints:…
Hello, we are working on a print machine operation simulator, which is (hopefully) going to be used as an education tool in schools. We are only 2 people working on it, for as long as about 2 years now. The basic concept is to create a dozens of printing machines and player would be able to operate each of them. So far we…

Include the following in your application: 1. At least 10 previous pieces of work in the 3D…
My route was painting textures for models --> drawing --> painting (academic). Looking back, I can tell u the most important stuff is learning form - which u alreay have. Values are second, which u already also have. So, really, there's nothing stopping u except self doubt here :) I figure someone competent as u can easily…
I have experience using shapeways. Even for very large prints the file size is adequate. You're not going to get that much detail out of most of their printing methods. The materials that do have that much detail would be very expensive to print at any large size. I would just use decimate master on something that's from…
Hello there! I'm Gwen, a senior character artist. I worked in Montreal for 11 years as a character artist for Gameloft, Ludia or Behaviour and moved to the Netherlands for personal reasons: I am only looking for remote freelance jobs since I will not relocate. I mostly worked on mobile games, meaning I have a lot of…
Great work on production and stylization. I really appreciate the craftmanship. My biggest issue with the render is the lighting. Specifically the value focal points is falling off the page. It's ok to have the breasts be the focal point but then you need to frame to that focal point. And it's impossible to give the image…
I'm looking for an application that will take an enormous image, split it up into however many separate 8.5x11 chunks it takes to print it out at the size I specify, and save them out to print. Anyone know of an app like that? I found Rasterbator (http://homokaasu.org/rasterbator/) and it does EXACTLY the splitting I want,…
