The picture will be in a PNG image format, which can then be uploaded to a graphics software such as Photoshop.

With your scene completed and positioned, head to the 'Send To' button in Tinkercad and download a picture of your design. The final step is optional and highly dependent on the visual style you're looking to achieve. Then position the most important and interesting features at the intersections of the grid and along the lines. Give the rule of thirds a try by imagining your image is split into a grid of 3 horizontal sections and 3 vertical sections. It might seem logical to position your design at the centre of the image but this can often lead to shots that don’t have a dynamic or natural feel. Rotate the view of your scene to where you want it to be for your final image. And if you're looking for a resource to find complimentary colours, check out Coolors.Īt this stage, your scene should be coming to life and you can now start thinking about the final visual. Rather than using Tinkercad's preset colours, you can head into the custom menu and input your own custom HEX values for a wider range of colours. You might want to go for bold contrasts or something more faded like our pastel palette below. Step 3 is all about adjusting the colour scheme of your scene. And don't feel like this is 'cheating' - many designers use stock assets in a similar way! A great tip in this step is to make use of Tinkercad's Gallery, where you can search for objects and copy them into your design. What other objects and features might you find in your environment? In our example below, we've added some abstract artwork to the walls, a ceiling light and a flower to the vase itself. With your design in some basic context, it's time to add some more details by populating your scene. Otherwise you could end up spending too much time on fine details that can't be noticed in your final outcome. Something to remember is that if the purpose of your Tinkercad design is to create visuals, don't be too precious about the size and accuracy of things. Where might you find your design? What are the foundations of its environment? In our example below, we've simply created some box shapes to represent a wall, a floor, a ceiling and a table. Step 1 is to put your model into some basic context. **As a quick side note, it is possible to send Tinkercad designs to Fusion 360 to access rendering features but for the purposes of this blog, we are exploring the creation of visuals directly from Tinkercad**.Īs you can see from the above image, the vase is sitting on a workplane grid, which helps with positioning when designing but doesn't help much when it comes to aesthetically pleasing visuals. The example we're going to use is the below vase, which was created with Tinkercad's scribble tool to create a side profile, which was patterned around a central hole. But where does this leave Tinkercad users who don't have these features? Is it possible to generate beautiful images of Tinkercad designs? Yes it is! And in this blog, we're going to look at 5 steps to help you do just that. Design software packages such as Autodesk Fusion 360 have amazing rendering features enabling you to create photorealistic imagery of your designs. With the growing amount of content in the world, it's as important as ever to ensure these visuals are interesting, balanced and beautiful - whether it's for a portfolio, website or to present to a client. Laptops for Design and Technology should have at least 4Gb of RAM (preferably 8Gb), 500Gb (preferably 1Tb) Hard Drive (but SSD is better), screen resolution of no less than 1600 × 900 pixels and Dedicated Graphics Card in addition to the usual network connections.3D visuals can play a key part in portraying a design or communicating a message.Intel Core i5 and AMD Series-A8 processors or better are first choice but older Pentium or less expensive Celeron may be OK if only basic use is envisaged and speed is not a critical factor but cost is an issue. Generally, the more expensive and newer processors and faster and more power efficient (although faster will almost always mean shorter battery life).Single Core processors are hardly ever available these days and Dual Core quite adequate (unless required for gaming and video editing etc.) but Quad Core would be better especially in view of the high graphics content likely to be needed for Design and Technology use.
