Digital Sculpture – Week 2

This week we trialed 3D digital sculpture. It was new to the brief and was a good opportunity for me to try for the first time. I have experience with drawing digitally but have never tried 3D sculpture. At first I was completely lost on how it worked so I played around with all the tools in Meshmixer. This is what I came up with.

I moved on to downloaded obj’s. This was where it got confusing, the objects I dowloaded did not come out as expected. They would all be very flat looking and when ever I tried to change them it would crash Meshmixer. I was able to make a small sculpture with only limited things luckily I took a screenshot because a few minted later it crashed and I lost it my work.

Meshmixer made me a little frustrated even after watching tutorials about it so I decided not to continue. My computer obviously could not handle it very well sadly, but I was happy that I gave it a go.
