Mastering 3D Modelling in Vectorworks: Creating a Stunning Castle
Learn how to 3D model the "Castel de Monte" Vectorworks with this tutorial
In the visually stimulating world of 3D modeling, Jonathan takes the viewers through an intricate and detailed tutorial, bringing the majestic Castel Del Monte of Andria to a virtual life. Catering to enthusiasts of architectural design and 3D artistry, the episode plunges into the realm of Vectorworks, a versatile modeling software, as Jonathan transforms mere images and plans into a palpable 3D structure. This episode is a treasure trove for those interested in honing their 3D modeling skills, especially in constructing historical edifices using modern software tools.
Jonathan embarks on his creative journey with a thorough preparation phase, collecting reference images and plans to ensure accuracy in his modeling. With these resources at hand, he employs Vectorworks’ polygon and push/pull tools to commence the modelling process, shaping the basic form of the castle.
