My friend has a little wood printing press model and I found a similar one for sale online, so I decided to make one in blender. 10" tall to scale.
I modeled the press, most of the other assets were from blenderkit for a quick scene. The pictures are drawings I did myself (I like portraiture as well as 3d modeling).
That’s lovely, and I’m saying that as someone who uses a restored Washington press (I volunteer at an 1880’s printworks). That’s an earlier model, doesn’t seem quite as early as a Gutenberg press (although I recognize the wine-press screw). Source? And are you putting up the model somewhere?
great work !
though it looks like a dark age torturer machine !
Thank you, my reference was this little model:
and this online listing:
I made it to scale from the model I had available. Technically, I am still trying to do some texturing work on it, so it’s not actually a completed project. I have not considered yet whether I would make it available or not as a finished model.
I featured you on BlenderNation, have a great weekend!
Thank you!
