Need someone to help me build a *very* simple model


#1

I can’t do it though :frowning: , and I’m going through the tutorials on wing3d, (still having trouble).

If anyone can spair 10 - 15 minutes to make a simple model of a dvd player. Ive got the blue prints, and must I say it again, it wont take more then 15 minutes. I really need someone fluent in wing3d. Ill re-pay you some how.

If you can help,

Its a very simple shape. Please anyone good at wing3d please help me… :hmm: :hmm: :hmm: :hmm:

…someone may model the dvd player for you as a pet project/challange, but more importantly you may get more replies to this post.

And what happens with the rest of the model…like texturing? Rendering? How are you handeling that?

Im a real noob, just got wing3d yesterday. Ill post the blueprints, and im doing one thing at a time… How do i copy and paste a pic of my model to show friends, without downloading wing3d, any programs that its compatible with? I.E. Microsoft paint, Photoshop? What programs?

Also what prog.s do i need to add textures and render stuff. lol what does render mean??? LOL I want to post a project I made on the forums but i have no idea how to… I also want to put a picture of my model(s) on my site.

I am more fleuent in wing3d now, but still can get my project done (dvd playa)

So those are my questions and answers.

Later. Reply? ok? good! lol

To take a snap shot of your model, the easiest method would be to hit “Print Screen” on you keyboard with the model showing how you want it to show, then open “MS Paint” > Edit > Paste. This will give you a screen capture of what your working on to edit…more so to crop out the things that are not part of the model, like menu bars and such.

For textures, you’ll probally want to use Photoshop, or GIMP, but MS Paint will work for very basic looking textures. Wings has a UV Mapping feature.

As far as rendering, rending is what the final model will look like when you have lighting, textures, and material properties all combined - ie any 3d image you’ve seen that looks real, cast shadows, ect…

An example with out textures, but does have colors assigned is here: http://www.cgtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=78452

Wings does do rendering other than basic OpenGL, so you’d have to use another program for this like PovRay, or YafRay.

Spend so time reading through the forums, not only ones specific to wings but cgtalks modeling, rendering, texturing fors for examples.

Download and look through the manual - it is well done, but some features have changed since its release.
