We are ready to move from micro to macro…creditcard sized plaquettes in lost wax bronze to jade, 8 foot panels in all naturalmaterials wood, marble, granite, alabaster and all the synthetics cnc routed ormolded to 20 foot by 30 foot masterpieces and everything in between. Production of all the medium is in place toproduce from STLs and our time is now…sinks and bathtubs to gallery andmuseum works…everything from bas reliefs, to undercuts to full 360.
Please provide relevant examples (or links) of your work.
We are looking for someone skilled in ZBrush to produce bas-reliefs and fullsculptures from photographs or other imagery. The files must be capable of being 3d printed or machined from the filesyou produce without any additional work or repair.
We are preparing guidelines for the work, as well astemplate files, to allow people to produce useable files for our processwithout requiring a complete understanding of 3d printing or machining. This could mean that you need to work in asomewhat different manner than you may have for other projects.
We want to communicate through skype and phone callswhen possible, as well as email, to discuss the work. Also and most importantly we want to sharethe passion of the work so you can catch fire with the immense potential ofwhat we have before us.
We are open to different ways of working as long as itsatisfies our needs. Therefore, we askyou to make any suggestions that you feel would improve the process, quality ofresults, efficiency in modeling or any other aspect of the work.
We want to be as faithful to the original images aspossible. In some circumstances we mayneed to modify things a bit from the original for the best 3d effect. We would like people who have a sensitivity tothis so that they can make these adjustments as they work.
We will provide the image(s) for each project, as wellas descriptions of the work or text/graphics to be added.
We expect the following:
ZTL file of the base 3d before surfacetexturing/detailing is applied
ZTL file of the completed work, no subtools, no subdivision levels
PSD file(s) for masks or alphas used to separateareas in the photo(s)
STL file of completed work
JPG renderings of the finished work with appropriate material(s)
Due to the size of the files it is preferred that you have a broadbandconnection like cable or dsl. You willneed to use an FTP client to transfer the files since they will be too largefor email. We have an FTP address andlogin that we will provide later.
