A stiff, old brush you don't much care about is also very helpful for applying texture paints. You want an assortment of various brushes for this project, including small, fine-tipped brushes for small details and larger, broader brushes for applying base coats. This will hold the acetone while we heat it. Note that you CANNOT use any kind of heat source that involves an open flame of ANY kind. This will really come in handy when we need to perform Acetone Vapor Deposition to get our terrain pieces to be reasonably smooth. I am completely new to blender and assume that the result could be achieved fairly quickly, but i don't know how and i am not sure if my intended method would actually be the best method to achieve the result.This can be almost any type of 3D-printer, as long as it is capable of printing the most common types of 3D files (.OBJ. What would be the quickest way to achieve the intended end result?

How would i connect the vertices in blender? i assume that one way to proceed would be to build the four 'sides' of the cube by connecting the vertices along the rim since they mirror each other (because i subdivided both planes 500 times and located them parallel to each other).

i don't seem to actually have created thickness.Īfter adding the second plane, positioning and solidifying it i got this result:Īnd now i hit the wall. I actually have the feeling that this is not the result i had in mind, since it seems like only the rim of the plane got solidified as can be seen in the picture. Now i solidified the first plane (unfortunately i can't post the picture) in addition i would solidify both planes using the modifier.

So i thought i would create another plane with the same dimensions, place it underneath the first plane, subdivide 500 times like i did with the first and finally join the vertices along the edges. i would like to have it look like in the first picture but being kind of a hollow cube with a relief on the up side to minimize the costs. as far as i know, i need to modify this plane to make it an actual 3d printable object. applying a texture using the aerial photo of the area.subdividing the plane by 500 and adding a displacement modifier to mold the surface of the plane into the shape of the actual relief.

creating a plane with the dimensions of roughly 40x40x1.2 cm.The end result should look like this (apart from my model only having one texture on the up side): I am trying to create a 3D printable model of an existing nature protected area in Germany and kind of hit a wall since i am very new to blender and 3D modelling.
