Full-Color 3D Models and 3D Printing

Technology November 25, 2017 by Nishitha

3D models are colorful and attract a lot of attention. There are many types of 3D models. Color is most important if you want to impress or communicate a message effectively. For many models, color is the most important. If you have plans which are in 3D, you will realize that color is necessary. 3D printing texture is the color applied to a 3D model.

Printing of 3D images

Images can be printed using printing methods that support color. As is with all 3D printing materials, multicolor printing has various effects on model design requirements and guidelines. Not all 3D files can support texture or color. The two most popular files that support color are .obj. And ply. Both files are needed to complete multicolor print.

If you need to print and have a 3D model, you need to check if you have files supporting color. You also need to survey the items you are required to have to achieve multicolored images.

3D modeling software

3D modeling is a modern way of sculpting objects using software. It is the process of representing items in a mathematical way. Models are used in different fields such as architecture, engineering, gaming, or geology, as is on ctech.com. These models can be printed or downloaded online for free or at a price.

If you are not sure or you feel like you do not have the skills to do 3D modeling, you can try to have your model done online.

Where do you get 3D modelling?

  • From software companies who will ask for a description of what you want. They will later on send it to you or request you to get it.
  • Online – This is where the model is already made and you only have to purchase it.

Each 3D program uses a different approach in the making of models. Such include:

  1. Curve modeling, It gives different curves and defines surfaces.
  2. Digital sculpting
  3. Implicit surface, These are surfaces defined by the means of a mathematical equation.
  4. Polygonal modeling, These are a series of points in the 3D space which are connected so as to form a polygon.
  5. Non-uniform rational B-spine, This controls pints so as to determine the shape of a surface.
  6. Constructive solid geometry, Operators will indicate which objects are to be combined so as to create a complex model.
  7. Sub-division surface, This allows you to represent smooth surfaces with the recursive process, subdividing every face of the base polygon into other smaller faces.

3D images, printers, videos, games, and sketches help you to view things that are not as real as though they are. This, at times, has its challenges and benefits. One main challenge is that people might lose touch with reality if exposed to too many images. A major benefit is that 3D models help communicate better.
