Experimenting with Photofly
Today I had some time to crawl the ZBrushCentral forums and found an interesting little piece of software called Photofly from Autodesk. It offers pretty much one click conversion of photographs into 3d scans.

Your girlfriend might not appreciate the thought of some stranger’s eyes (US intelligence anyone) enjoying her nudity. Have fun.

ZBrush – Boon and bane

Back on track
It has been quite some time since my last post. Of course there have been the occasional christmas holidays that kept me busy. But I also had to deal with a sore throat for my part and heating problems/ventilation issues of my Acer Aspire 8930g. Continue reading
