Curvy 3D Forum

Hi - I was thinking about buying the software to save me some time in my work (I draw a lot of cars in 3d for t-shirts etc)

Could someone kindly tell me if an image like this would inflate smoothly? Or is it too complex?



Would appreciate anyone's opinion! If it does work and an inflate can be relatively clean, I'll but it straightaway, it just made sense to ask first.

Many thanks, M

Looks complex, and the greyscale values don't match the height values inflate uses to make a model. You would need to paint a new greyscale image with height values to inflate, then add the original image as a texture map.
If you try to do too much with a single inflate it will get messy.

That said - all those tubes and cylinder shapes would be best drawn individually as curvy shapes. And use inflate on individual pieces that are more oblong.

i would make a few simple rectangular blocks and project the picture onto them.
If you give an example illustration of an existing t-shirt I might be able to give a better answer.
