S Amin Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Hello everyone, I benefit from this site and the software; and it's a better alternative for PS etc., for several reasons. Thank you.. Anyways what I need help with is I want to learn how can I make 3D graphic chracters please? Okay, I don't really know if you need to use some other software(s) along with Paint.net. So please do excuse my really limited knowledge in this field, but I have come here with high hopes. (I have been trying some tutorials here already...never posted here until now). Kindly, list the softwares and other things I will need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 I've got a pretty good idea how to do this. I'll PM you a mini-tut for this, or would you prefer me to post it here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really mind; either way it's fine by me. I'd be waiting for your reply/PM, Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wkheathjr Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 That's too bad you can't share tutorial. I am new to Paint.net and switched from Adobe Photoshop so it really would be nice to see if paint.net really can match up to adobe photoshop. A tutorial being posted on here instead of PM would help a lot. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theonlychad Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 the image you are referring to is made in a 3d modeling program. While paint.net is powerful it is a raster program not a 3d modeling program. You may be able to a achieve a 3d character in this program but it won't be as smooth as that.

But would you or someone be able to suggest any good 3D modeling programs please? I really need to this, hopefully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theonlychad Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 you can use a plugin called shape 3d to mock up some 3d stuff viewtopic.php?f=16&t=5271 best regards, chad Quote  "Clearly it's a very serious and literal meaning.

I hadn't come across it before; and from comments it seems very useful. Best wishes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 I was really just going to suggest S3D, and a whole load of blurring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimson Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Keep in mind Paint.NET is not a replacement for true 3D modeling software. If you want results that look highly realistic, I suggest you look into some 3D software (Blender, while being somewhat hard to learn, is a great, versatile, and free program that can accomplish your needs).
