3D design is one of the most interesting industries to be in, 3D design can range from game design to creating beautiful movies such as movies pixar create.
The main requirements to 3D design is to have a powerful computer, very good 3D software and to have a lot of time to spare to get the finer details.
This category on Tutorialmode is more about building 3D models and learning how to incorporate them into engines such as Game engines or environment engines.
In this Article will be covering an introduction to 3D design and what is possible if you have the right tools.
About two years ago I came across a piece of software called Vue made by E-on Software, this engine can great beautiful environments and architectural designs.
If you ever want to create a beautiful desktop wall paper or an absolutely stunning short movie, this is the ideal choice. Also this Engine is very compatible with different 3D models creators such as Google's Sketch up or 3DS Max.
A link to the softwares website.Have a look at the images below to see what is possible.
So as you can see, Vue by E-on software is a very detailed and advanced package. Unfortunately the package is around £289.04, so as software goes, the price is quite reasonable.
The next software we will be looking at is Blender, Blender is completely free and is quite easy to use. Blender is similar to most 3D design software as you have the front, side and top camera on the object you are designing. The Blender community is huge, so if you need help or are stuck, there should be someone to lend a hand in what you are working on.
A link to the softwares website.Below are some very impressive images of what blender is capable of.
So as you can see above, Blender is a very powerful piece of software which handle just about any task you will every come across.
3D design is all about having the skills and time build these models. Sure most people can build a simple box, but adding the extra bit of rust or extra texture is what makes models stand out.
I will be creating tutorials in the future to teach how to build a simple models to making the models look realistic and standout.
I will be creating tutorials on how to build these models and adding in the extra details. We will not be covering Game design as this site has another category dedicated to it and the available engines.
Comment if you have any questions, or if you want to teach people you can add a tutorial to this website.
