It begins! (Patreon)

First part of Crash is a go. I wanted to get his shoe soles modelled so I could start printing them, knowing they would take a really long time to print. 

I'm a total newb at modelling. Using Fusion360 for this particular job. You can get a free user licence if you are earning under a certain threshold. 

I spent almost all of yesterday modelling this. I had no idea what I was doing so jumped from tutorial to tutorial as I progressed through each step. Very slow pace but learning a bunch. 

It felt great to actually get what I wanted modelled from scratch. Learning how to do this is something I've wanted to do for a long time now. 

I printed a test at 20% scale and it came out great (will post a video tomorrow). Now printing the final 2 soles (that will be molded and cast in silicone for a realistic shoe sole texture. They are going to take almost 2 weeks to print because of the huge size, even hollowed out. 

I'll be working on modifying a previous commission that was sent back for changes through next week. Will see how fast that goes.
