Shinpachi's 3D/CGI World

[ontos]

Fantastic job Shinpachi, it is so realistic. You are a great artist, my hat is off to you.

 

[Shinpachi]

Thanks, ontos. I am a novice in front of you

 

[Shinpachi]

RR Merlin parts.

This will be my last work this year.
Thanks everyone for enjoying my work in 2009!!!

Just when I don't think you can do better, you do better. NICE!!!

 

[Shinpachi]

What a nice art of spelling words, vB!
Thanks.

 

[Gnomey]

Excellent!

STUPENDOUS WORK Shinpachi!!!!

 

[Shinpachi]

Thanks Gnomey and Aaron
Please look forward to more in the next year.
I am grateful for your encouragements!

Shinpachi, as accurate as your 3D renderings are, can these 3DCG models be used in a CNC machine to create actual the parts?

That's bl**dy amazing work Shinpachi, truly stunning and outstanding.....don't know which superlatives to put in here! I'm so looking forward to more of your work!

Most likely GG.
It reminds me of Solid Works or Autodesk Inventor.
It's amazing what you can do with those programs.

SolidWorks 3D CAD Design Software
Autodesk - Autodesk Inventor

If he is using a program like that and building it in 3D it can be converted to CNC code.

I was wondering about that, but I know that in some programs like Strata, the wireframe algorithms can't be converted to anything more than visual renderings, even as accurate as they might be.

gMax has a number of applications, including aircraft for combat sims, but I wasn't sure if it would cross over to G-code for use in a computer numerical controlled machine.

If so, that's just about as cool as it gets!

 

[wheelsup_cavu]

Like you say, It all depends on the program he is using to make the renderings.

The 3D models you make in the two programs I mentioned can be imported into Mastercam or Gibbs cam or some other CAM program and it will create the G-code necessary to make the part.
You chose the tools you want to use and the toolpath you want to follow and Mastercam and Gibbs will generate the G-code for you.
Of course it really helps if you can read the G-code program that the CAM program spit out for troubleshooting purposes.

Yes, I think it is possible. Here was such an attempt for the luminous resin modelling based on *.SHD extention before. Link1. Link2.

My software is Shade , a Japanese 3D CG software, and it can export data with the following extentions.
text, 3DS, FBX Exporter, GDL Object, IGES, LWO, POV-Ray, Shockwave3D, Viewpoint, VRML 2.0, XVL, DXF, RIB and Animation Master beside its original SHD.

If anyone may try, I will be delighted to supply my data.

Thanks for your expectation for 2010, Lucky13!

Cool!

 

[Shinpachi]

Thanks, timshatz
They will finally synchronize with the crank shaft.

 

[ontos]

Those look great Shipachi, what programs do you use for the 3D work, do you use Daz, or a CAD program. Looks great.

Outstanding work my friend!
