Why Can A 3D Creature Be Created And Rendered Fast

I really love CGI in movies. I'm a bit of a tech freak, and I love to watch a 3D creature laying waste to civilization.

I love it so much that I made my own 3D creatures. I make them using the software and 3D content at DAZ 3D.

Nothing could be easier and more efficient. The software that I render my 3D creature is multi core enabled, which means it will use every core you have on your computer to get the job done quickly.

This is a professional feature that at one time would cost a lot of money for you to do at a render farm, or on a high end software.

My 3D creature is also quickly, and easily created using pre-made human  CGI geometry that only requires a morph to be added to it, like a body shape, or head shape to create your own unique characters.

This means to create a 3D creature you just have to select the base model, and then add the accompanying morph, or shapes, or combining morphs and shapes, from other sets, that you can download from the content library.

This means that you can probably create just about any 3D creature that you can imagine.

Combining this easy and quick style of model making, with multi core rendering, empowers  you to  create your own 3D movies with very little skill..

I'm talking about movies of the highest quality that you can imagine. This is not amateur hour, but more of a professional approach, and what’s even better, an inexpensive approach to completing your own productions for CGI.

Some of the base 3D creatures that come with the creature creator kit are the undead like zombies, aliens, goblins, demons with horns, all that kind of creepy cool characters.

You do not have to be satisfied with just one of these creatures you can combine these creatures as well, to create your own unique creatures of the Black Lagoon for example, whatever your heart desires.

They also come with different materials like fur, scales, and zombie skin, which covers your creatures in great detail.

You also get the low-res morphs, and the HD or high definition more detail morphs, which you can combine to create the most realistic cinema ready 3D creatures from DAZ 3D.

So whatever the project you have you can create animate and render fast!

Why Is The Quickest Way To Create A 3D Virtual World Is With DAZ Studio?

The simple answer is: with one click add an entire 3D Virtual World into the scene or stage. Lots of environment packs come with presets, which effortlessly add an entire modular scene with one action.

Nothing could be easier and more efficient.

It takes just a few seconds to add an entire scene. Another way is to build the virtual world, all the model parts, from scratch, using Carrara, or Hexagon.

Then go through the process of importing it into DAZ Studio. This might sound complicated but it's not. Creating your own 3D virtual world is a lot more work, and will require a certain level of skill, but will be very satisfying.

I started out simple, creating basic rock shapes to eventually building complex models. The tools in Hexagon are simple to learn, but can construct complicated and dynamic geometry without you doing all the work.

To give you an idea of the power delivered in this inexpensive 3D modeling software Hexagon has a wide palette of tools, but not an excessive amounts.

The thing that I love about it is that it is relatively simple to learn, and the 3D modeling tools are specific and easy to find, and use. Many more expensive software solutions have too many tools that I never use.

I love box modeling and Hexagon offers a simple but powerful subdivision tool, so I can add instant smoothness to me 3D virtual world models with a single click.

It also offers Spline tools and surface tools. It also has great UV unwrapping tools and a selection of 3D painting tools. Another cool thing is the ability to paint in displacement, or what is called 3D sculpting mode.

This makes Hexagon great for organic modeling. It even has  ambient occlusion in preview. This is one of my favorite and efficient tools for creating my 3D Virtual worlds fast. Exporting is easy and can be done in several standard formats.

Getting custom models into DAZ Studio can be a process, and that is for a different blog post.

But whether you want to start a new life as a 3D artist creating virtual worlds, or you are only interested in creating your won 3D art, DAZ 3D is without a doubt the place to start! Ever since I started I have become a best-selling 3D artist.

I think anyone can do this. It is satisfying and fun, and an amazing journey into the beautiful world of 3D. Give it a try...

Put Some Insanity Into Your 3D Wall Art Or Just The Real World

The real world is just as crazy as the 3D one if not more. Put some of that insanity into your 3D wall art. What I mean by crazy is that if you have ever taken the time to sit outside and watch the natural world around you, at different times of the day, you will notice that it is never the same.

The natural world is always changing. It's not just because of the revolving planet, weather systems, and day and night cycles, it has also something to do with entropy.

Entropy is ultimately the process of decay. It is the second law of thermodynamics.

Now I don't want to get too complicated, and what does this have to do with outdoor 3D wall art, anyway?

A lot!

But to keep it simple: the dissipation of energy and the dispersion of matter leads everything in the universe toward chaos and decay. At the same time it is the mechanism for life, and led to single cell creatures that evolved into people like you and me.

Then again, we are born, get old, fall apart and die. A sun, planet, solar system, or universe is born, gets old, and dies too.

Everything, in every cycle, is caught up in entropy, and will end up in chaos. Why do you think we constantly have to paint our houses or fences, wash the car, exercise to keep fit, repair bridges. Because everything is constantly falling apart.

So what does this have to do with you sitting outside in the park, or natural setting, when observing the plant life around you in order to gain deeper insight for creating your 3D wall art?

Everything!

Because everything is in a process of decay and chaos even when it is first born. 

 When observing the world around you, it is in the decay that the story for your 3D wall art can be found. In the case of texturing and modeling, look at the story the crazy real world of chaos is telling you. An old shed covered in vines and twisted overgrown plants, in the middle of the forest, tells a story about time, and indicates history. 

Now if the weather-beaten, cracked paint on the exterior of the shed has a heart and two names carved inside of it, this tells a story about love, perhaps love lost, and can be the beginning shot of an epic tale. If you are creating a 3D scene of the natural world using a 3D model plant what story can it tell? If the plant has tangled and spread, and suffocated the landscape, and just within view there is a street light sticking out of the bushes, a stop sign, and the crumbling facade of a bank, what story would that tell? Entropy is everything when creating interesting 3D wall art that tells a story, and has a sense of mystery!

Why Is The Crazy 3D World Going To Give Us A Very Long Life, If Not, One Day Soon, Eternal Life?

What is so crazy about 3D? Lots! Is it a crazy 3D world because the world is a crazy place to begin with, no matter how you look at it, and we perceive it in 3 dimensions? Yes, of course! But this blog is about everything 3D in the real world, and the virtual one too.

The craziest thing of them all is that the 3D virtual world has now crossed over into the real world, to affect our way of life. And in the near future it will change life so much that we will not be able to recognize it in the way we used to remember it.

WOW! 

It would seem that anything can be printed.

Although 3D printers are nothing new, in fact the first one was invented in the 1983 I believe, the technology and vision behind it has advanced light years since then. They can print everything from cars, tools, toys, cloths, to pizza for astronauts.

Delicious, right?

No longer is 3D  printing exclusively done through a single sprayer, or made out of hardened plastic either. Today multi-sprayers, combined with anything from bio-gels, powdered metals, pizza dough, cheese, or powdered cloth is possible.

This is 3D Crazy or What?

The craziest 3D world of which I'm am talking about in this post, is the one of 3D printing human body parts. Nothing in the real, or perhaps, virtual 3D world, is more exciting, mind blowing, and just out-right crazy!

Why?

They have manged to print a beating heart, and Kidneys, although not yet fully usable for humans, the future looks bright for those in need of spare body parts. 

Scientists have been able to print all manner of things like blood vessels, which saved the life of an infant once, bones, skin, ears, and more, with bio-printers that use a cell based gel material. Bones are made of ceramic powder, and prosthetic's can be printed for a 100 dollars instead of 5000! They have also done a skull replacement; and one company is working on a skin graft machine that grafts the skin right onto the burn victim in real-time. This sound like crazy science fiction, right?

In the future they will be able to do skin grafts, and perfectly match missing parts.

Thus, more lives will be saved. And the craziest, but natural result, of this is that we will be able to live way longer. Some predicted that we will be able to live indefinitely? Eternal life sounds great, but make sure you save up a lot of money: retirement will never end...

Can you imagine going to DAZ 3D Props And Models, picking out one of the beautiful 3D characters, adding a few morphs, and saying to the doctor: I want to look just like that? Or after reading a Carrara 8.5 Pro Review you decide to create the perfect virtual character of your dreams, and print it out to use as spare parts, or a full body replacement? Crazy or what? What do you think?
