3D Character Configurator (maqet.com)
03 Feb 2011The most interesting and innovative commercial project I've been involved with recently has been maqet.com, which is created and run by artist Keith Cottingham.
I've been building a configurator which allows the user to create customized maquettes by changing poses and drawing in textures. The "maqet" is then 3D-printed and delivered to the user.
Most recently, I've been working on the drawing tools that allow the user to paint on a two-dimensional canvas that updates the texture of the 3D model in real-time. Soon to be added is a freehand drawing-to-bezier curve tool.
