what's the easiest way to get a 3d model of an existing house/apartment if I don't have a floor plan? I can spend up to 3k on equipment.

Overkill and never modifiable. Spend weeks making it look like source. Way too much time involved only for dogshit quality results.

Yep! SketchUp fastest I've used. Simply type in your measurements drawing it out, dragging walls up, etc.

what the others said, if you can access the place physically take a tape measure and do some construction surveying. don't forget to bring enough paper, a ruler and a pencil to do an exact first draft while you're there to avoid any confusion later on. Once you have all the dimensions you can directly jump to the 3d model once you get home

Why did you guys choose 3D over drawing? Is it because drawing it's too difficult?

I've been thinking if I like drawing or 3D more and what to invest more time on, because with 2D you can also animate

Because the idea of building an asset and then being able to do whatever you want with that asset forever appeals to me. If you draw a picture, you have a picture, if you make a model then you can do a lot more with it. Also I caught the 'tism from my father and perspective is not something I'm capable of, at least not without a lot of practice. Maybe I'll get better later in life, but I'm not particularly good at 3d and I want to get better at that first.
>>
>>976353
exactly like personally i was really talented at drawing and creation instinctually but im not good at using programs efficiently so it was harder to learn for me due to modelling and animation's early learning curve. Not everything has to be a skill comparaison.

Very interesting. I tried to tackle the lisa hair issue a while back. But I was too inexperienced to make anything work. It's interesting to see what a working hair might look like.

>>975887
The coup de gras for this problem is for the deformer geometry to itself have corrective blend shapes which move it through optimal shapes for the most important and problematic angles, and also likely inbetweens for each of them so it doesnt do anything strange. Potentially a lot of fucking work.
At the very least I think a more clever deformer shape would make it look a lot better with little effort.

I'm trying to rip fortnite models I can put it into blender because I want to make some funny shit. There's this dude that runs a discord where he has a fortnite ripper program but I don't know if I trust that shit.

Sorry for the dumb question, it's just everything I tried looking up just sends me to this guy's discord to download his shit. Does anyone happen to know if it's safe?

So I used Virustotal and also scanned it with my own anti-virus and it was detected as malicious by one anti-virus, SecureAge. I don't know if that means it's unsafe or not because everything else didn't detect it as malicious.

No, Virustotal is a website that checks and sees if something is malicious by running it through multiple anti-virus. The file I checked was FortnitePorter

But I can use Blender somewhat, so I just make models from schematics
I was also thinking of remaking art by actually creative and artistic people in 3D, or replicating video game scenes.
Anyone else like this?

The best way to be "creative" is to literally not focus on it at all. Go outside, go for a drive, a hike, have some kind of experience, watch a movie or show, play a game. Do literally anything else besides art. Keeping your mind fresh and open to new experiences is how you can get creative juices flowing.
Now when I say that, I don't mean procrastinate and consoom media, I really do mean opening up your mind and taking in the sights and sounds, enjoying things in the moment. Shit like that really does wonders.

If all else fails, just do drugs and center your entire life around them like all the "dude weed" people.
I find drugs to be kinda gay (because of people who base their whole personality on them), but I'd be lying if I said it doesn't work for some people. Kinda makes "being creative" a bit expensive though, I'll bet.
>>
>>976922
If you want to be creative study art that you find creative, look at a lot of artworks, expand your visual library, study history or other subjects close to what you aim to design, draw from various inspirations, creativity is a skill that can be developed, it will take time to go from uninspired works, to inspired, to original

Hi anons,

So Im getting into using Solidworks partially for fun and partially for a potential future in automotive mechanical design. Ive run through lots of tutorials and exercises and I feel pretty comfortable with the basic principles.

In order to challenge myself ive been taking home old parts from work (I work at a high end auto shop) and trying to recreate them perfectly in SW. This is great but I want to challenge myself more. What resources, classes, or exercises can I do to fill out my solidworks skillset?

I’m a novice myself but it feels great when you watch a tutorial by someone you admire and find yourself thinking, I’ve made better ears than that or I’ve sculpted a prettier face than that.

Congrats, you’ve hit the dreaded plateau. It will take 10x harder to break the barrier and you won’t find any other artists of a higher level than what you see on social media because all the real pros are too busy slaving away at game studios. Fuck, they probably aren’t that good than what you see in artstation, they are just good at making their employer money. That’s it.
