      Hi to all,

      Up to now I have modeled only a building in Sketchup. But is it possible to model a puppet also, such as a ventrologist's dummy? If not, can one use a photo and make a model from that with photo match? I am new to Sketchup. I have never used photo match.

      Something as in the attachment. I can't buy the model but would love to try make my own.

      Any suggestions are much appreciated!

      Laura

        you should be able to model it yes, you will need plugins / extensions to assist in organic modeling though

          Any suggestions of free plugins which will be able to create this with? πŸ˜• I am a retired person and can't buy stuff but want to learn making my own models.

            I'll post a few links of things you could try, most are payware though...

            Also have a look (Sketchucation Pluginstore) at what fredo6 has on offer, they may also be of help, if I recall correctly his stuff is free.

            Why not have a look on 3D warehouse for something you could use as a base and manipulate that?
