I'm aware of the the show() and showProperties() functions in maxscript but as far as I know this information is only printable and not usable within the script. What I need is a way of looping through the properties of object/material/render and collecting the setting of each one into an array, is there any way to go…
i love your zines and its beside the polycount site a very valuable learning book for me :) It would be really cool to get a 2nd version printable, i would pay even more for it. i had bad image quality issues while printing on a high quality rip printer. cheers and thanks for vertex…
I remember seeing a website that allowed you to preview what your model would look like printed, with color coding to show if a piece was too thin to be printed with a given material (non-printable parts are shown in red, if i remember), so you could adjust accordingly before asking them to print it for you. Unfortunately,…
I was so amazed to stumble over this particular 3D model. I've been looking for a 1/43 scale model of the Nissan Sunny for more than 20 years now, to no avail. Having access to a 3D printer, I'd like to ask if you could share this model with me? The artstation link doesn't work (any more?). I don't know why I didn't find…
tri-count (upto millions) and topology doesn't matter much in 3d printing. you can clip the eye bits into the head no problem. use netFab to check the STL mesh for holes, thin-walls, and measure the size of features so they are larger than the minimum printable feature size. check the prices and minimum feature size for…
Eric: I just bought an Epson R340 which has a special DVD printing mechanism and bay. It prints directly onto the DVD surface. You just need to buy white printable DVD-R's. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000AY5...5Fencoding=UTF8 OK thanks jec, that's why Im going with the solution of adding a data Quicktime file to the…
Dude I've tried doing artwork for friends' bands, and lets just say I've moved in other, less disastrous directions since then. It's harder to do a solid screen-printable design than most people think. That linework is badass and reminds me of a few mean punk rock tshirt designs I've seen. Smooth chicas + skeletons is…
Awesome! I was thinking about doing it that way. But I wasnt too sure once I unfolded it what creases were 1st, 2nd or 3rd etc. folds (so wouldnt know how thick the chamfers should be) I guess if I folded and unfolded the live crane as I went could figure that out. I was searching google for a printable layout so I could…
Thinking about it some more. You have these separately printed designs, but you want to design them all together as a cohesive whole, on a 3D model, right? So then you should build a 3D model, with each design as a separate part. Then you can use Texture Baking to convert each 3d design into a printable image. The trick…
My take on Ibram Gaunt. Main protagonist from awesome novel series "Gaunt's Ghosts" by Dan Abnett. Warhammer 40K universe. When I'll finish him, I want to share 3d printable version for free. in case someone wants to print it and use in his/her 40K army(tabletop) I'll be happy to hear any kind of CC! Standard Issue Bolt…
