Basic Question about creating 3D models in Unity

Unity Engine
1

Hi there,

Firstly apologies if I’m posting in the wrong place and for the stupid questions, newbie to this.

I’d like to use Unity to create 3D models, is this possible in Unity or do I need to use another program like Blender?

If I can create, where can I find a tutorial on how to build a wire mesh/frame in Unity? Or is it possible to do in the free version? Basically for Asset creation.

Thanks :slight_smile:

Hi, you cant make 3D models in Unity.

Blender or this is a good method.

http://www.wings3d.com/

I prefer Wings3D as its a hell of a lot simpler as its more focused on just modelling.

Thank you :slight_smile: appreciate it, I’ll check out that Wings3D , thanks again.

I can import into Unity OK from Wings 3D?

Can I add a skin from Photoshop I’ve created that’ll wrap around the object?

For modeling in Unity, take a look at ProBuilder:

and Game Draw:

Well I tried Wings3D and it didn’t want to run so I downloaded Blender and it works fine.

Thanks Is Probuilder easier to use than Blender?
