I learned to 3D model - 198 hours over 2 years.

The vase files (PolyVessel): Free sample of the vase To download the files for the shoes (GraveDigger): Grasshopper is a plugin for a 3D modeling program called Rhino. Architects use it to design buildings and cool patterns. It took over a year of work, but I was able to design some 3d printed shoes for my wife. Grasshopper is different from Blender/Maya/3DMax in that it uses a NURBs based modeler, instead of mesh. It’s different from Solidworks/Fusion360/Catia/Onshape in that it’s easier to make more complex shapes. Closest 3D analogue is probably Houdini. ***This looks easy because I have may hours of experience in Solidworks. If you’re starting out your 3D journey completely from scratch, you’ll have a much steeper learning curve.*** If you’d like to learn to 3d model using Grasshopper or Rhino a 90 day free trial is available. -Music- Finall
