My small (very small) contribution of 3D objects.
Hello everybody!

I'm sharing a compilation of objects I've made trough time. Most of them are traditional objects useful (I think) for artistic scenarios. Old School objects I never found in databases online, or found it but weren't for free, etc. So I made them by myself.
Most of these objects are/were typical in South America lifestyle and specially in 80s.

OBJECTS:
Cafeteria counter or display case
Park lamp
Office chair
Mock coffee maker or mixer
Plastic trash can
Lockers
Busy broom
Concrete sink with water connection, full basin, plastic cup, side table with bar soap and liquid product in a container
Wall-mounted hand dryer
40lb propane tank (due to the regulator ratio)
Patio mushroom (to put a light inside)
Pot
Small pot
Fictitious sound amplifier
Plastic pitcher
Oven gloves
Blender
Speaker
Bottled liquid product
Two-burner propane gas stove
Monophonic cassette recorder/radio
Cutlery tree
Hot chocolate milkshake
Wind-up alarm clock
Fictitious revolver
Notebook
Dessert plate and cup
Wall clock
Glass with three colored pencils
Fictitious typewriter
Bucket or pail for water
Blanket or folded blanket
simple Gothic column
crucifix

The file is a SH3D file that contain the objects. It looks like a yard sale! And most important, EVERYTHING IS FOR FREE!

Notes:
Park lamp was the very first 3D model I achieved, if it looks too simple, it is because I was learning CAD from absolute 0. The most recent model is the revolver. All in the middle are IMO acceptable quality models. Anyway, leave your comment.







Here is the file:
Dropbox
Remember, no preview is available, but download safely.

Re: My small (very small) contribution of 3D objects.
I almost forgot the piano.



I repeat: I made these models because:
-Online DBs didn't have it
-They weren't for free
or
-They were available and for free, but in a format I can't do anything with (in SH3D).

I know it must be not 100% perfect, specially from musicians' view. But newbies in SH3D and 3D modeling in general might fin it useful.

I am looking for a simple WC sign, can't find it anywhere

Re: My small (very small) contribution of 3D objects.
I've just made this single candle with its candlestick.


Here it is, free for all of you:
Dropbox

To get the effect of the light, just place an incandescent light, with 8% power, inside the flame, that is 75% transparent.

=========
I want, If admins don't mind, to suggest the software I use to make my models, for two strong reasons:
* It is AMAZING
* I've ever seen nobody mentioning it. Everybody speak about Blender, and it is fine. I don't hesitate, Blender is amazing, too.

But allow me to mention

Freecad


I've been using it from its version 0.7. Please, I don't want to start a sandstorm with this comment, Is just my humble opinion:
Blender is great for artists, those who have artistic skills love blender. But if your mind is not so artistic, but instead it is mathematical, and love making models, you'll love FreeCAD.
And, obviously, must exist those who are both artist and math skilled. My respect to them.

Newbies in modeling: I strongly recommend FreeCAD.

Please don't try to destroy this perception, it is just my view.

These public telephones are still present all over my city. A nostalgic work for better times:

Re: My small (very small) contribution of 3D objects.
I'm proud to introduce this baluster with independent top, useful to place balusters in stairs.





Useful exactly for that shown in the image. If you have a veranda attached to a different level storey, and you want the same baluster in both places.

You only have to use the marvelous multiplier tool to place the headless balusters in the stairs. Then, create a straight line of only the tops of the balusters (invisible bodies), also with the multiplier. Use the "Copy as new furniture" tool and paste the new furniture. This will be the handrail or banister. Rotate it and place it.

I hope you find it useful.

I took a lot of fun making it.

Here it is.

Great job :).
Do you have birds too ?

Re: My small (very small) contribution of 3D objects.
Hello

For single signs, the best idea is to create a frame (with a box) and use the texture sign upon it.

See the digital display of the fictitious audio amplifier here, it is an example of that.

If you want a carved 3D sign, probably you have to design it in Blender or Freecad.

But a texture is enough, IMO.

Have a great day.

Re: My small (very small) contribution of 3D objects.
Right now I'm exploring parametric modeling (based on geometry).

I'm not the guy (right now).

Anyway, I'm pretty sure you'll find a lot of users that can model a bird in a blink.

You will find very few birds because they are very difficult to create and the objects will be huge in size/face count. But there is an alternative: photo-on-a-box.
Read this thread to see how it is done. This post takes it even further smile
Our valued member GaudiGalopin3324 has done amazing things using this method. His posts are well worth reading but be warned: most are very advanced topics. It does show how far you can go with SweetHme3D!
