Embedded Files

This week I made my project selection and continued work on my 3D bust. I took the photos of my favorite teacher Mr. Craw. I then took the photos to Paul so he could create the bust on a program he created. I received the bust as a .ply and when I tried to Import it to Meshmixer and an error occur and didn't import. I asked Paul and he said that Meshmixer doesn't like .ply files and that I should download Meshlab. Then from Meshlab, I need to export it as a .stl file into Meshmixer. When I finally got a good look at the bust the main issue was that left side of the face did not come out well. Not only that but the bust was missing most of the top head. To fix these problems I placed a sphere inside the head and started to shape it to look more natural; however, the left side of the head did not come at very well. The whole left side of the head was a lost cause so I decided to mirror the bust and make both sides the right side. After reviewing the bust It is still not to my liking and I am going to take more photos and try a new 3D bust
