In part 8 of the die-line conversion tutorial, which is the final part for modeling and UV mapping, we apply thickness to the geometry and separate the inner and outer thickness components from the edge part. For Part 1, go here. For Part 2, go here. For Part 3, go...

In part 6, we import the prepared Adobe Illustrator die-line art for modeling in Design 3D and full ‘dice’ up the regions into quads and triangles in preparation for UV mapping and folding. For Part 1, go here. For Part 2, go here. For Part 3, go here. For...

In part 5 of the die-line tutorial, we begin preparing the actual die-line in Adobe Illustrator so it can be brought into Design 3D. For Part 1, go here. For Part 2, go here. For Part 3, go here. For Part 4, go here.

In part 4 of the die-line tutorial series, we look at giving the 3D object thickness. This includes looking at the concept of subdivision surfaces and the concept of hard edges and hard vertices as they apply to our model. For Part 1, go here. For Part 2, go here. For...
