1) Use http://www.123dapp.com/. The Autodesk program does an excellent job of streamlining to process. In particular, the catch app works well for turning photos to 3D, although the make app was what I ultimately used. 2) Blender. http://www.blender.org/ Or any other animation software, although Blender is free. Unfortunately, the learning curve is quite steep, so much so that I had to meet with members of the Computer Science department to learn to use it. http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Blender_3D:_Noob_to_Pro http://www.blenderguru.com/ 3) Mesh Mixer was the software I used to turn the design into one that can be 3D printed. Makerbot does have an integrated system to build supports, however Mesh mixer does a much better job of customization and control of how the model is supported http://www.123dapp.com/sandbox http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:131054 |
