Welcome to my 3D Character Workshop in Nomad Sculpt! The ability to design characters in 3D has been a game-changer for me and has been a joy to learn with Nomad Sculpt. I’ve been able to export my 3D Sculpts to Blender for more in-depth work, and also create physical art that I can hold in my hands with resin 3D printing. This type of character lends itself well to 3D printing, so it's perfect if you're looking to sculpt things you can print!
