Simple Artisan examples collection

Hi,

I decided to be more serious about modelling... I think I might be on the right track and decided to share some models on the warehouse.

I still need to understand why it's better to model with quads or tris only.
And how to do it.

If anyone can explain this to me briefly, I'd be thankful!

Hi Cotty!

Unfortunately, there's nothing you can do about this.
Don't worry about the apparently ingrateful downloaders!

Some of these borrowers will eventually end up sharing things too...

Let's see the glass half-full and consider the fact they downloaded your models shows how great they are!

Thanks for your models and thanks again for this great thread!

hey cotty,

Would you like to see any of your models 3D printed? If so, which one(s)? (Or share a new one)

Here's one of my faves...

COOL!

Is it your Replicator (one color)?

I think, some models which are good printable are (priority 1-5):

Art_01 (3)
Art_02 (4)
tabletopsoccer (as in your photo, 2)
piggy bank (1)
hand (4)
icosahedron (5)
chair_07 (1)
fan (2)
wheel (3)
speaker (2)

These would be great, but they are perhaps not printable with a FDM (?)

Yep! I currently only have red and black to choose from. (The red looks pink in the photo due to the lighting)

I printed a small version of the piggy bank the other day. It turned out nice! I'll probably try more of your models over the course of the next few weeks.
