How Much to Charge for 3D Modeling

7 2 Expert
Since GrabCAD has enabled the "Hire Me" button, opening very interesting possibilities to get 3D modeling jobs, the question arises in some of us: How much to charge for 3D modeling? For this "tutorial" we have done some research on the web on the subject, and found several sites with valuable information on the subject. We recommend reading this work: https://sketchfab.com/blogs/enterprise/create-3d-models-cost, by Miss Amélie Deltombe. We also found valuable information here: https://www.ziprecruiter.com/Salaries/3D-Modeler-Salary-per-Hour https://www.ziprecruiter.com/Salaries/Freelance-3D-Artist-Salary https://www.ziprecruiter.com/Salaries/3D-Modeler-Salary

How to create different kinds of roof in Renga Architecture? From simple to complex

4 0 Expert
The roof is the main attribute of any house, and especially of a private country house or cottage. It is not only designed to protect it from rain, snow and sun, but is also an ornament of the house and street, attracts the attention of neighbors and passers-by. In Renga Architecture, the Roof tool allows you to build different roof models using a small set of commands. But at first sight it is not always clear how to make it in one form or another. Therefore, we decided to tell about the different nuances of working with this tool on the example of several country houses - from simple to complex.

3D Modeling of a Polar Rose Using 3DS Max - Part I

PETAL CREATION PROCESS: There are two main methods for modeling the petals as follows: 1. Surface modeling method: draw a 2D surface of suitable shape using the Create > Line tool and a volume to the surface using the Shell modifier. Edge softening is achieved with MeshSmooth modifier. 2. Using Symmetry Modifier: if we are aiming for absolute symmetry of the two halves of the petal, we must use the Symmetry, but this step must precede MeshSmooth. 3. Solid modeling method: place a standard Plane primitive in the workspace (Perspective Viewport). The desired shape is obtained by selecting and moving vertices. The remaining steps of shaping the desired form are analogous to those of the method described at the beginning of the tutorial. 4. Clone the petals: using Pivot > Affect Pivot Only, where by default the pivot point is at the center of the base of the object. In this case, a total of five rows of four petals are modeled. They mus be grouped by Group so that they do not move during further work.

The conceptual model creation is described in the following article: IVANOVA, Ioana and Stefka NENOVA, Computer Graphics as a Means of Increasing the Quality of Military Education, Report, Sofia: Yearbook of the Military Academy, 2013, pp. 141-155; http://rnda.armf.bg/wp/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/Binder-1-322.pdf; ИВАНОВА, Йоана и Стефка НЕНОВА, Компютърната графика като средство за повишаване качеството на военното образование, Доклад, София: Годишник на Военна академия, 2013, стр. 141- 155, http://rnda.armf.bg/wp/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/Binder-1-322.pdf ANIMATION PROCESSES: 1. Animating the model: it is performed by creating keyframes in the track under the working space that can be adjusted, changed and deleted. 2. Animating a camera: it is analogously to step 1. 3. Rendering process: it is required to be completed before saving the final image or animation in a desired format.

Their advantage is that they move in all directions, and most often this happens with changes in the center of gravity. Some models use a system of counterweights, which helps to stay still on slopes with an inclination of 33° (Pico Rover). Some are used to study the environment, others - on the lunar surface. They are usually equipped with a high-resolution camera. The robot is tentatively named by the author VESPER-006 ("Vesper" means Venus) due to the fact that the planet Venus is a "double" of the Earth due to the close dimensions, although the surfaces of the two planets are completely different. The spherical shape was purposefully chosen to make the robot to resemble the planet it was inspired by. VESPER-006 is thought to be with an innovative design and drive method. It is suitable for research and analysis of the environment regardless of what it is (air, liquid or field). The temperature range is also wide (between -40 and +120°C). The mechanism must be able to reach the point with coordinates (x, y, z) in time space [t]. The design is stylish, simple and facilitates the rotation of the robot around its axis, as well as its movement in space. The dimensions must be such that they can take the weight of the engine and equipment. Apart from an aesthetic purpose, to make the design more interesting, the three side elements (Stands) have been added for their practical function - to stabilize the robot when it is in a static position. The main steps in the modeling process are as follows: 1. Modeling the side element: first a curve with the desired shape is drawn using Create > Shapes > Line. After that it is extruded by Modifier Panel > Extrude tool. To edit the object, right-click on it and select Convert to Editable Poly. The model can be modified by selecting individual polygons, edges or vertices and using the Extrude and Bevel tools. 2. Clone the side element: by right-clicking on it and selecting Clone. 3. Modeling the spherical body: the outer Geosphere is transformed into a grid by selecting all polygons, Inset and Extrude. The selected polygons should be removed.

Open Material Editor (hotkey "M"): the main settings of the material (ambient, diffuse, glossiness and specular level) are shown in Step 1. 2. Coloring the inner sphere: it should contrast to bring out the golden material of the outer grid. An example is given in Step 2. 3. Adding lights and shadows: this is one of the most complex stages of modeling in 3DS Max, usually done right before animating the model. It should be noted that lights can also be animated. They are selected from the main menu Create > Light. The favorite light of the author is Omni. Each of the lights can be adjusted appropriately to produce realistic shadows and highlights.
