Bosch 3D model and 3js prototype
The workflow in this case is: Modeling with 3ds max, because of it's interface and tools, was better to develop the initial model using this and not blender. The idea was also to include all details like brand name, model and plastic instruction components, such as arrows, divisions inbetween the drill and the battery, even the holes for screws and ventilation.7
Afterwards, it is exported to blender in order to optimize the model and to once again export the JS from blender
After a while, using some images in order to make textures, normals and adding some light this is the result, but not the final one.
Final Result of the model
This is the final result of the modeling, and also the texturing and illuminating process. Is possible to see it HERE but even after the compression it's 16 MB, so it could take a while to load.
Test App
- This is the result of the test app using several 3d models. There's also the 2D version of the same app.
