howto edit a 3d model - part 1by *Destro2k

Artisan Crafts / Folding & Papercraft / Other

ok, before you get too existed
i know this is not "that" tutorial what you expected
but it show you the basic what "i" have to do
when i wanna build a papercraft model from a 3d model

i say "i" because it's my method
i don't know if it's "the best" ore not
i just know
it work

i will not explain how to rip a model ore how Photoshop ore the other programms work
there are enough tutorials out there

it is also just a part of the whole thing
because i will do this "walkthrough" until Gomamon is done and ready to build

i choose Gomamon why this model contain the most problems what i always have
object which are merged together, single attachments and buggy polygones
also i don't wanna punch you down with a huge model like the big sister

what i'm doing here counts only for gomamon
because every model is different
not every method work on every model
sometimes you have to think around three corners ore simple cheat that it work

if you have questions
pls pls pls ask

for this walktrough i'm using Metasequoia
a freeware 3d editor what you can download here

pic1
ok, i allready opened the model file and selected the body

pic2
here i rotated and moved the model to the horizon

pic3
for me always the first step
seperating the single objects

sometimes you are not able to select whole objects
then just click on "Object - join closed vertices"

pic4
first steps of the simplification
i removed the backside of the teeth and the ears

pic5
because i seperated the eyes from the torso i can work on the objects without touching the others

here i rebuild the eye at the torso layer
with a more easier mesh

problem here
the texture don't work anymore

pic6+7
that's why i have to cheat a bit
i made a new texture layer with just the right eye

pic8
same for the left eye

now the original eyes are useless, so i deleted them

pic 9+10
can you see any difference ?
at pic10 i removed quite the half of the hair pieces
and there are still enough that it looks like the original

still a lot to do
i just started

~Aluckart Oct 19, 2011

is this a tutorial?

und wie bist du an das passende programm gekommen?

~CJM99 Oct 15, 2011

This is great, please make more tutorials! I'm just starting out with making my own 3D papercraft and am interested in how others do it. I've been building my 3D models from scratch as i'm not sure where is the best source for 3D models - and as i'm new to 3D modeling this cleanup as you describe here is quite hard!

thanks
i hope it's ok in that way

i want to hold it simple
with greater steps
when i had to explain every simgle step
this tut probably blow the dimensions of the background idea

there are a lot things to do and you have to work with a lot things

it's also a learning by doing thing
