Image to 3D Modeling in Vectric Aspire | How-to | Vectric Tutorial

September 7, 2023

In this multi-part class, I am going to teach you the steps to create a 3D model from a reference image, using the 2-rail sweep tool, the create shape tool, the Extrude and Weave tool, along with other 3D modeling tools. You will learn how to create vectors and node editing to create the rails and profiles to extrude these shapes. and in the end, we will have an elegant scrollwork cross as the finished piece.

The Scroll Profiles used in Class are available for download here. https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=1uwHU71gJVtRB84dgBdzUptH1N8SO8iba
