Modelling shoe from image

cheri.geor — Wed, 12 Oct 2016 13:25:03 GMT

I have been trying to make a 3d model of this shoe. I watched 2 youtube videos related to this on fusion 360. However I am not able to get the desired level of detail and working with splines is turning out to be quite a frustrating experience.

It would be very helpful if I could get some guidance on the process to be followed .

Did you watch this video on shoe modeling?

and this one using canvases with sculpt ?

You should post your model ans/or a representative section of it that illustrates your current problem. You are much more likely to get usable feedback that way.

Thanks for the reply Timm.

I had already watched those two videos earlier. I also watched this one on modelling a CROCS slipper (in italian though) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=daq89DJmgdw

Here is a link to my model : http://a360.co/2dof9t4

In my model I sketched the sole profile and extruded it as a body, on which I could sculpt the side profile of the sole using "snap to object" as described in the following video on sculpting sunglasses (https://youtu.be/uAAR1c-Tzl8) .

I did not "finish form" of the sculpt because it was incomplete. So this is not saved in the model.

Grateful for trying to help.

In the future just attach your model as an archive .f3d file to your post. It makes life a little easier.

I will start out saying I am not a very good sculpt modeler, not enough seat time. this is about 20 min of work.

look at this thread for some really good info

Thank you so much Timm.

The video is extremely useful. It's a lot easier after watching how it's done.
