That's what I figure, but you never know.

Man... I really want to give this a shot, but I'm still waiting to get the confirmation that my Printer has been shipped. I hope it shows up soon. I have a few things I want to test!
This is a worldwide contest right? Just want to make sure. -
Have you all used Creo?
-
Ok. So I've figured out that I need something more structural oriented. I need to be able to keep proportions the same throughout the project. So ZBrush for this use would not be ideal.

For your organic stuff, check out MOI 3d. they have a 30 day trial and it costs I think about $400 US you can do mechanical things in it too but its more oriented towards organic models.
Also check out DesignSpark Mechanical for mechanical things.
Ok. I've seen a few topics here about them, but haven't looked into them that much. Thank you.

Solidworks and Zbrush are two totally different modelling packages, so if your more into your organic modelling and characters etc then go for Zbrush. I can use Creo/Solidworks pretty well for all kinds of mechanical things, with parametric modelling...however because of my Parametric mechanical mind I found Zbrush sooooooo hard!! There are loads of tutorial videos online though, and as suggested above go for Sculptris first which is a great little version of Zbrush but is free.
Ya. I just like SolidWorks because it had a lot of functionality and has a pretty big community. So it'd be easy to get answers to questions.

Ok. Thank you! That's something that I don't like about ZBrush is that there is no demo. :( But great! Thank you! I'll check it out!

I want to make all kinds of things. Nothing too specific. But the majority would be more "organic" stuff. Like rounded and smooth surfaces, not a lot of architectural stuff.

Hey everyone.
I've been looking around for a 3D Modeling software. I've messed around with Sketchup and Blender. Both were ok. SolidWorks looks awesome, but I don't have that kind of money to just drop, sadly. I have come across ZBrush. I love the concept of it, and I was wanting to get some of your opinions of it. Should I go for ZBrush or not? Thank you for the help!

Hi Memory.
Welcome to the group. I have just purchased my first UM2 and am enjoying learning how to get some good prints out of it. I did a lot of looking around before getting it and recon I have made the right choice. This technology is far from at the plug and play stage. I think this makes it more challenging and fun though. The people on this site really know there stuff and are just great at answering the most basic questions really quickly. It has been an invaluable resource and made the whole learning process so much better.
Don't wait 'till Christmas, get an early gift now!
Trust me. If I had the money right now to purchase one, I would. all the research and reading that I am doing about Ultimaker and 3D printing in general just makes me want to start ASAP!

Hey everyone! I made an account on here a few weeks ago and haven't been active at all. So here's a quick intro to me.
I'm from Arizona, and am currently looking into 3D Printing. I am hoping to get a printer this Christmas, if not sooner, and start creating all kinds of different items. I am just starting to use ZBrush to create 3D models and am loving it. Hopefully I won't make too many things to overload the printer when I get it.
So that is just a little bit about me. I will be more active here in the forum and on the chatroom. I hope to get to know you all well, and be able to learn many new things. If you have any questions just shoot me a PM and I will get back to you as soon as I can.
Keep at it! So stoked to get into this!

Which 3D Design application do you use?
in Design for Additive Manufacturing

+1 for Fusion360. Love it! Printed my first design today! Great learning experience! Plus working on a Mac so it's nice to be able to have the same User Interface as everyone else that uses it.
