 3d Modelling Question |
 Mar 3 2014, 11:01 AM Post#1 | |
Posts: 1,357 Joined: 1-April 04 From: Northern Ireland (Newry)  | Hi I have got myself Visual Studio 2012. It comes with expression Blend. I am trying to program Windows Presentation Foundation applications. Anyway, i have no experience with 3d graphics before. I am looking to do simple things with 3d modeling. For example, i'd like to create a company logo in 3d that rotates slowly in a window in WPF (logo is a crest like shape with 3d text in front of it). Can these shapes be created in blend or do i need another program? If so, what programs are out there you'd recommend? Costs? etc. Regards Conor |

Thanks, Keith |
