Jim Posted June 14 Report Share Posted June 14 I had hoped to create a digital 3D model of Madness on our last trip. All the bobbing about on the water confused the hell out of the software so as yet I've failed. I decided to have a go at creating a carving from a photo. Here's the results so far. This is what my software says I'll get if I carve a real piece of wood. Not the best but to ease the pain I added some fish. 🙂 Hope you appreciate my efforts Mad 1.mp4 Greg, Ark, 2006holmwood and 8 others 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Posted June 16 Author Report Share Posted June 16 Thanks Charlie. If it keeps chucking it down I'll see if I can improve it. If it turns nice I'm not going to be sitting in my office. 👍 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Posted June 16 Author Report Share Posted June 16 Thanks Martin. I want to improve it before finding a suitable piece of wood to carve it on. Just need more time. 😉 Looks as though my freelance CAD stuff is drying up now. They've taken on 2 new staff in that dept. so I should have more free time. (Just less money) 🤣 Maverick Martin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
