Freebies: 3D Models & Resources Roundup
Download some free 3D models, textures, plugins and other resources for your favorite 3D program. Get freebies from iToo Software, eyedesyn, Pixel Lab, 3Dmodels.org, Chaos, and more!
iToo Software, the maker of Forest Pack and RailClone, has 4 free plugins for 3ds Max:
- Clone creates copies of an object by incrementally translating, rotating, and scaling the input geometry.
- SplineOffset creates multiple clones of splines and can incrementally increase or decrease offset, translation, and rotation.
- Glue is 2 tools in one. First, a tool to move a selection of separate objects to any surface by projecting the pivot point along either the X, Y, or Z axis. Second, use Glue to conform a Spline to a surface with several options.
- ColorEdge is a procedural texture map for 3ds Max
Pixel Lab gives away beautiful models, textures, and more for Cinema 4D, Unreal Engine, Redshift, and other renderers. To download the freebies, sign up for the Pixel Lab newsletter. They’ll send you a code to give you access.
