A dog model

[trillicomm]

Anyone has a 3D STEP or IGES file of any dog?

I want to place it in a house I'm designing in proe.

Seriously, I need it.

Thanks.

You find me an image or better yet for or five dog images you like. Maybe a concrete statue of one. Ill model it using ISDX ... just for the fun of it.... Ill even start on it Sunday! Ill even run the trail file to make a youtube video of it.

I can't wait to see it. A Golden retriever will be cool or anything. Have at it.

Hair on a golden retriever might be more difficult. How about a bulldog? sitting or standing?


google IMAGE search for golden retriever

and it might be an order cheaper (time wise) to model it symmetrical too.

Yeah, no hair, just a 3D body profile.

The dog will stand on all feet.

Example:

A fully grown dog will be ok. Although I can size up or down in ProE, I think.

Yes, mirror its half to make a full dog is a time saver.

that url did not work for me.

How about this one from the site you found

(It's the big picture on the right with a green shirt.)

You can make the dog head look straight for easy mirror in Pro.

The hair bothers me on that guy. that sounds weird.

 

[trillicomm]

think of it as if the dog has no hair

it doesn't have to be realistic

will you use Style to model it?

 

[design-engine]

I never use only one... style. But yes I will use style to model it but not now Im watching star trek

It's up to you. Style or Solid is either good.

 

[design-engine]

curves - surfaces - solid

 

[trillicomm]

can't wait

Okay... I never got around to modeling this dog using ISDX... however design engine does offer a new training class.... this zbrush tool has a free 30 day license and there is a library of dogs that can export into proe. ZBrush. I think it was developed by ILM or some folks from there. Its used to model crazy sculpted toys but it's more for game development and movies.
