3D Modeling

A selection of final production designs and handmade 3D prototypes for the arts and crafts market.
Prototypes are used for review as potential kit ideas or as suggestions for customer projects.
Materials include cardboard, EVA foam, Styrofoam, wire, felt, pom poms, over-baked clay, paint and bendable chenille stems.
Sometimes it's incredibly valuable to construct the final concept rather than use the drawn image...you can work out any potential problems faster.
