Still New in 3D

One Hundred Seventy First Post: Still New in 3D

When you start to draw in 3D it is difficult because the options and menus of the program are so vast. Drawing basic shapes is easy with many to choose from at the start, but as you start to draw more complex models, you realize it takes a little knowledge of the program.

But there is much to be learned and discovered about 3D drawing programs. These programs are built out of complicated math formulas and code. It isn’t the formulas but the drawing process that needs refined. It is getting easier, but there still is many features that need to be simplified. In my opinion the way we draw 3D will change in the next 5 to 10 years. Of course it is going to improve with time, but I am interested in the interface and techniques used to draw.

I would like to see a plugin that combines the features of Auto Cad and 3DS Max. Something that would let you draw from Auto Cad directly in the Max format. Now you can import, but it is more complicated. Though, I have Auto Cad 14 and not the recent version.

Slow day today. I feel that I have to work out like a pro athlete to lose weight. 30 minutes on the treadmill can get boring. I saw a treadmill on sale at Amazon. It had a reading rack. How do you read when running or walking?

Any how.... May the Creative Force be with You
