Pepakura Designer - Making 3D Models Out of Paper!
Pepakura Designer is a really amazing software which allows you to create a paper craft model from 3D data used in 3D software like 3ds Max, Lightwave, Wavefront, AutoCAD, STL, Metasequoia and Google Earth 4.
If you are a 3D artist, you will appreciate how this software empowers you with the ability to bring your 3D models to life.
Basically it allows you to create paper craft models from 3D data. If you have a 3D software and you have some 3D models, Pepakura Designer can take the data from the 3D models and intelligently map it out on a paper with the vertices arranged in such a way that they form a foldable model in reality.
This lens introduces the Pepakura Designer and showcases some of the amazing work that has been created using the software.
Pepakura Designer was developed in Japan but there is an English version available.
This software is open to the public as shareware so you can download and try it freely although some advanced features are limited until you purchase a license key.
You can check out the software at Pepakura Designer.
