Bryan G. Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 anyone have a good idea how to create a 3D Gabion Basket? Quote Link to comment
Benson Shaw Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 How much detail do you need? The basket can be a box with a mesh texture. The filler can be a slightly smaller box with the pebble/rock texture scaled to suit. Mesh can be image texture from photo of chainlink, or png of 2d mesh drawn in Vectorworks. Or place a landscape wall, assign a rock texture (scale as nec) and place a planar object in front with the mesh texture, transparent voids. Or actually model the basket faces with EAPs. That's processor intensive, so model one crossing as a symbol and duplicate it to edges. A separate symbol is needed for the edges. HTH -B Quote Link to comment
