Free Mountain Blender 3D models for download, files in blend with low poly, animated, rigged, game, and VR options. After a few false starts (most notably the Statue of Liberty), I lucked onto Mount Rushmore. While researching the current availability of software, I came across VisualSFM, which seemed to be exactly what I was looking for, as it claimed it could create a point cloud from non-sequential images.įor such a famous landmark, I’m surprised there’s no 3d models of it to speak of. Most programs that this very important first step in 3d modeling - creating a point cloud - want or expect the images to have been taken pretty much at the same time, and often with the same camera. ![]() So I spent a few leisurely hours downloading images of Mount Rushmore (well more than just a few, and not that leisurely), and then spent more time than I care to admit learning all about how to prepare my image set for processing by VisualSFM and the other programs in the tool chain.
