Thingiverse Skyrim: Dawnguard Vampire Lord 3D Printer Model made with ZBrush

Link via Thingiverse


I created the Vampire Lord for the Skyrim DLC: Dawnguard. I decided to take the zbrush model I made for it and turn it into this bust for my own personal use. I was however given permision to share it with you guys for anyone that may be a Skyrim fan or just wants a cool looking creature in general. Vampire Lord is property of Bethesda Games Studios. Feel free to print and enjoy this model but please do not alter it or try to sell it in any way, it is illegal and they will find out, trust me.

ZBrush 4R5 is available at an academic discount price of $449.95

Viso3D converts SketchUp models so that they can be viewed and navigated in 3D on an iPad or iPhone/ iTouch using the free Viso3D iOS app. The Viso3D SketchUp exporter plug-in will convert SketchUp geometry, textures and scenes to a .xcs file format. It will also optionally, create a lightmap which will “bake” the SketchUp shadows into textures capturing the model’s shadows. The Viso3D iOS app can then view the exported SketchUp model on an iPad or another iOS device. The Viso3D iOS app is free from the iTunes app store. Search for viso3D or Viso3D.

STL’s for 3D printing: in-and-out of SketchUp in two clicks

Link via Official SketchUp Blog

Reading and writing STL files from SketchUp is something that users have been able to do for a while with the help of two separate ruby plugins. But as 3D printing has continued to boom, we’ve been thinking of ways to make this file exchange easier. So we emailed the original plugin developers, Jim Foltz, Nathan Bromham, and Konrad Shroeder, and asked if they would be interested in letting us combine their tools into a single open source plugin. All three responded with a resounding “yes!”

But, what’s the big deal with STL, anyway? There are many who believe, and so do I, that we’re on the verge of a new age in fabrication and prototyping. You can now take designs and make them a reality in the comfort of your own creative space. We’re just scratching the surface with this technology that brings digital back to analog, and for the moment, the STL file format is a lynchpin between 3D models and print-ready objects.
