Virtual showroom
-
Hi all you SU guru's out there,
I've been trying to create 3D models of furniture I'd like to build one day with SU8 (and a bunch of plugins) and use these to create a virtual showroom. For most pieces I have no problem as long as there is no carving involved.
I'd like to get in to this next level of things so that I can create my own unique stuff. I think every woodworker as an idea of what I mean if I say the furniture I'd like to create as a 3D design would be say in Louis XV or Regency style, => lots of carving.
I'd like to have advice on what one would need to learn be it books, 3D design course, what software I should use and basically if such a thing exist, a conceptual approach or techniques to model such carving stuff. For example, I saw somewhere an approach called box modeling but it is very time consuming to create stuff one little island at a time and in the end it looks so so, kind of machine made if you see what I mean. I like my work to look like handmade even if in the end I would used a 5 axis CNC machine to make it.
If you need more explicit kind of work I'd like to do, I can put some images. I didn't because I didn't want to use to much bandwidth.
Regards,
