3D modeling

Virtual shape creation

3D modeling is the process of creating three-dimensional digital representations of objects using specialized software.

Artists and designers manipulate virtual vertices, edges, and faces to build everything from characters for video games to architectural visualizations.

The resulting models can be rendered as static images, animated, or produced physically through 3D printing: She learned 3D modeling to design jewelry.
