How to convert a JPG image to a 3D model
In this video, I'll go through the process of converting a jpg image to a 3D model using two free programs, Inkscape and Blender. This is a follow up to a video I did about a year ago, where I explained how to convert an image to a 3D model for 3D printing, but since then, I've found an easier way that only involves using 2 programs instead of 3, and I'm also including some tips and tricks to decrease your poly count and optimize your model.
