  1. Cool!

    We have an image based modeling group here to explore this topic. can you add your model to that group?

  2. In my scene “Redneck Entertainment Center”, the remote control and some other itens were created from pictures in the same manner. I am gon=ing to have to give that a whirl in Shape. Thanks for the video :-)

  3. lol!
    that was bostondave?!

    • This video was on youtube before here and I saw Boston Dave he shows up 3 times in the backround above cliff.

      • You’re too funny tomy! I had to watch the video again to find BostonDave the first time. The third head isn’t BostonDave, which you can tell for ummm, hirsute reasons. The last person, in the lab coat, is Ian. He seems to be everywhere. :)

        If you subscribe to the 3DVIA YouTube Channel, you may see early versions of the final videos before they’re released on the site. Cliff uploads them there and we all make comments before final edits and release. It kinda’ like a pre-screening for those of you who catch them!

  4. oh no!!
    that was 3.1!!!

    • Don’t worry sady – 3.1 is mainly a group of worthwhile bug fixes and improvements to existing tools. There aren’t any huge changes or new tools. It’s being thoroughly tested now.

  5. nice tutorial, got me looking for somthing to try it out on.

  6. I don’t think I’ve ever actually taken pictures with a camera. It’s either Shape’s photos or internet (Google/Altavista).
