App To Sketch 3d Designs

Sketch 3D is a tool for designing 3D models from your fingertips. You could download models from others, and could also share your great designs with other users by saving models in Public space.

New feature: Use True Depth Camera to capture face model.

New feature: Support using video as model texture.
You could use video clips from Photo Album, or from Internet URL (YouTube URL not supported), and then apply it onto a model as texture map.

New feature: Capture movie from the 3D scene.
Note! If your device could not capture movie, then, could try out a smaller output resolution (by tapping the control pane). However, arbitrary output size may stop capturing prematurely.

New feature: Design 3D model animation with skeleton structure.
You could design a skeleton structure by placing bones in hierarchical relation. Attach model to the skeleton, and then moving the bones to define different poses. Each pose represented as a keyframe in the timeline view. And animation sequence is produced by playing interpolation between the keyframes.

Features:
- Import 3D content directly from browser or email, either in .zip, .rar, .7z.
- Support formats: Collada DAE, OBJ, 3DS, STL(for 3D printing), and others.
- Import/export to iCloud drive, via iTune File Sharing, or to Public area via Apple CloudKit Service.
- Supports AirDrop.
- Support Quad faces.
- Smooth surfaces using Subdivision.
- Mirroring editing.
- 2-fingers vertex movement, 3 or 4-fingers planar shape creation.
- Versatile multi-touches drag-through-space gestures to support editing and changing viewing angle at the same time.
- Flexible face strip drawing.
- Stitching boundary faces. Stitch triangle soap into connected faces. Stitch over edge or vertex to form a larger face.
- Stitching Triangles to Quads.
- Loop Cut faces.
- Bevel edges.
- Extrude faces or edges.
- Revolve (Spin).
- Vertex Smoothing.
- Vertex Slide along edges.
- Crease Editing after mesh subdivision.
- Split mesh from, or Join mesh to the editing one.
- Support hierarchical mesh node structure.
- Direct vertex color editing when texture map is not used.
- Edit texture map UV coordinates, include atlas generation.
- 3D Text generation.
- Scene interaction with your created shape.
- Design Animation with skeleton structure.
- Capture movie from the 3D scene.
- Support using video as model texture map.

What's New

- Modified iCloud view to handle too many iCloud models in private view.
- Revised the camera movement limits when setting the viewing style of Turntable mode.
- Modified the Timeline view allow zooming out without limit, and provide sliding gesture.
- Fixed non-responding output size changes of the Movie capturing view.

Ratings and Reviews

Hard to rate

I have been doing AR art design for awhile now and have tried pretty much every app related to 3D design. This app had me so excited because of its features, unfortunately it is not intuitive. I usually pick up basics of apps pretty fast but not here. For starters my works view is only displayed and usable on half of my screen. And the tool bar on the left has rows with information in them but for some reason it does not show up displayed so I have to blindly guess what I'm clicking. I've tried using the help bubbles but it still won't allow me to do anything other than view my objects. If I could get this to work at fraction of what it is supposed to do I will be more than satisfied, but I fear I'm going to have to take weeks to figure it out while opportunities pass me by. I'm not saying this is a bad app, I'm just wishing there was a possibility for me to utilize it.

Lasso

This app probably the closest to best for poly modeling for the iPad, and looked almost every one there. It feels that app was designed mostly for touch usage, but with pencil I always want to use as a mouse in desktop apps like Maya, Cinema 4D, or 3DS Max, lasso selection, or paint as C4D, to shorten the time of selections. Custom background color would be a plus as well. Honestly already with just this app, pre-modeling could be done on the iPad, and it is exactly what I was looking for. Onscreen buttons could be helpful as well, like hold shift and drag to extrude, double tap to loop selection. Anyway huge thanks for the effort you're doing to make the app. Also maybe better to rename it, App Store has the same name app, with less functionality and paid one. Can't imagine that big companies still not here.

Thanks for your comment. Regarding selection in editing mode, you could use 2-fingers long press to select a square region of vertices. Twist fingers in opposite direction for de-select. You could also long press the plus or minus icon, while touching / panning over vertices with another finger for adding to selection or removing from selection.

Free with huge potential

Downloaded the apps while ago and just u til now I started learning to use it. Love the plethora of tools at your fingertips and the help next to them if one chooses to view it. Yet I find myself lost quite often and there are no tutorials. As a beginner to 3D I really would like to give it more stars.

I just noticed it's been a year and nothing has happened to the app. Makes me sad to see such talent toned wasted I cool yet complicated apps like this. Just a suggestion, contact Blender and over the app as a Blender for iPad companion and have more collaboration thrown at it. Don't let it die!
