I have been looking to get back into using Maya for personal projects, and overall am hoping to begin building assets using Maya, Max, Substance, and other tools to utilize in Unreal Engine. I decided to take a course with CGMasterAcademy during this summer and went with their Intro to Maya since it had been … Continue reading Intro to Maya – CGMA Course
I have been using Enscape with Revit for some time to create both static, 2D renderings as well as panoramic views and walkthroughs. If you don't know, Enscape is a great "plug and play" tool in the industry currently- it allows users to very quickly and easily visualize their models with correct lighting/materials at a … Continue reading Interior Walkthrough – Hospital Waiting Area
I tried something a little different recently after seeing this video from Prusa Printers: https://blog.prusaprinters.org/the-beginners-guide-to-mold-making-and-casting_31561/ I had seen examples of people creating really cool resin/soap/candle casts from silicone molds created from a 3D printed object and thought it looked really fun. It could be used to make gifts or little trinkets. Also, why not try … Continue reading Silicone Molding with 3D Prints
How cool are 3D printed Lithophanes? I used a free photo to lithophane converter (something like this website) and printed it out. It turned out beautifully (I was worried due to the tiny details- but the converter and printer picked them up perfectly). I am trying to think of good uses for lithophanes other than … Continue reading 3D Printed Lithophanes
After using Dynamo to bring in excel data to create family types for each of the equipment listed, it was time to figure out how to organize how and where the instances of each type would be created in the Revit project space. The user offered the option to bring in all the equipment at … Continue reading Family Creation using Dynamo – Part 2
I thought I'd share some projects I've completed in Dynamo, Revit's visual programming language. Dynamo is a tool that allows user to create more efficient processes for whatever Revit task they are trying to conduct. I have found it to be immensely useful- I am a sucker for making any task automated! I have not … Continue reading Family Creation using Dynamo – Part 1
After my post regarding Delauney triangulation, I realized I had a few grasshopper scripts I had previously worked on this last year that I could also share. One project specifically stood out because I was able to play around with a parametric brick façade design. Always fun! I was tasked with creating a specific design … Continue reading Parametric Brick Façade in Grasshopper
Hello all, Today we are going to discuss Grasshopper for Rhino. A tool I love, but don't get a chance to discuss or even use enough. It can be a powerful tool for design, but sometimes difficult to implement, due to its learning curve. Additionally, figuring out how to efficiently import a design from GH/Rhino … Continue reading Delaunay Triangulation on a Façade
As we all know, quarantine has been tough and everyone has been cooped up in their homes. A ton of people have tried all different types of hobbies (one of my best friends is making bread and sewing her own dresses!), so I decided to rediscover one of my own. When I was little, my … Continue reading Quarantine Cross Stitching
It's been a while since I last posted, it's been a busy year! I thought I would come back and share a project I completed last spring/summer. My friends (a couple) decided to start a garden last spring in their new apartment together. As a housewarming gift, I thought I would make little vegetable labels. … Continue reading 3D-Printed Veggie Garden Labels
