"ODDJOBS" Rapid Prototype Toy Development

OddJobs_BANNER

(Click on the banner!)

In the coming weeks I’m going to write a quick diary of the process and techniques I used to bring to live a toy design for a good friend of mine, Jon Kinyon (www.jonkinyon.com.)His Project, “OddJobs” (www.jonkco.com) is a T.V. series he is developing based on a line of toys he is making - synergy people, SYNERGY!...

What I did for Jon was to take some concept designs he had of the character and I sculpted a 3D model in ZBrush. I then converted the ZTool (model) into a Stereolithography file (.STL) and off it went to be printed at Purple Porcupine in Irvine California. The results are amazing, so stay tuned for designs, turntables and pictures of the whole process!...

Cheers!

Rapid Prototyping Tutorial: Chapter One

I’m starting a new tutorial on Rapid Prototyping from Maya, yes! Maya...

What I will show you in this tutorial is 1) how to prepare the model - understanding the difference and issues with open objects, holes, thickness, pieces, etc, then 2) exporting the model as a .STL file… and finally 3) what to expect from the sculpture at the end!…

I hope to have the entire tutorial done soon...
