Hey Folks,
Got a couple of more general questions I reckon y'all may be able to help with.
I'm an Engineer, so all my experience designing stuff has been using tools like Fusion360 to do precisely dimensioned and fairly regular parts. I have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA how to go about taking, for example, a Green Lantern (the actual light, not the character) model from Thingiverse, and trying to mod it to turn it into a little necklace charm for my wife. (Add a little loop at the top that's meaty enough to do the job, maybe tweak some of the curves, that sort of thing)
In my current workflow for stuff I design, I use Meshmixer, but only for hollowing and venting. I've had a look at meshmixer's mesh editing tools, and have only managed to destroy perfectly good models, I've never managed to actually make something nice.
Could anyone point me in the direction of a good tutorial/starting point for someone who's never worked with manipulating meshes before?
Second question, is there anyone Sydney-based who does casting and would be willing to talk about casting a little figurine as a gift for a mate? It's the mascot of a game he made, it's done quite well and I was looking at getting him a gift made. I've been playing around with prints in resin, but I don't have any gear to do casting myself, and I'd like to look at getting it done in either Stirling Silver, or maybe 18K gold. PM me and we can chat, I can send through some of the STLs I've pulled from the game.
Cheers in advance folks!
