Modeling an airplane with the SDS-modeler in Strata CX
Modeling a cereals box and plate filled with cornflakes In this tutorial we will model this cereal box and a plate filled with cornflakes.
Making texturess seamless Making your own texture library is one. Making those images seamless
so the will tile perfect is another challenge. In 99% of the cases you need a texture that will repeats itself infinitely across a 3D-object without showing any edges. The first image is the original image of a “sand” surface. When tiled, it becomes checkered. Also, there is a bad lighting gradient. Fortunately, there is a technique to remove the lighting gradient and a technique to make images seamless in Adobe Photoshop.
Streetscene In this tutorial we will model a streetscene: 2 buildings, an alley, streetlights and a road.
A woorden horse As always, analysing an object before modeling is important. This would save you a lot of modeling time. Take photographs from a wooden horse: isometric, top, front, left and right.
Disney Cinderella Castle. Altough modeling the Disney castle seems a challenge, it isn't.
Terrain modeling. There is one function that easely build terrains in Strata.
Modeling a tyre - Technique 1
Modeling a tyre - Technique 2
Smart modeling: Modeling without modeling! In this tutorial you learn a technique to model a sea star without modeling at all! What you need are textures, created in Adobe Photoshop.
Broken glass. In this tutorial we show you a quick and simple way to create a glass surface or glas shape taht appears to be damaged or broken.
Modeling a Castle Gate. There are several approaches to building a castle gate in 3D. In this tutorial we show you two ways, with their advantages and disadventages.
Metasurfaces modeling. When starting in Strata 3D, you might find the SDS-modeler too difficult to mastr. Then metasurface modeling comes in handy.
