Any ideas how this is made?

My brother suggests these are made in a CAD/CAM software (pro desktop etc), anyone got any ideas if thats true?
Could they be made in Photoshop?

Possibly, but that would take a professional longer than to do than it would in CAD software imo.

Like the hotlinking btw, nice touch.

That isn't cad that is in to much detail tbh cad is so frustrating as well it would take years lol

It doesn't look like it was made in a 3d package as the edges are too imperfect on the tweezery things (unless someone has actually gone though the trouble of modelling it to look imperfect).

I would say it's a mash up of scanned drawing with some photoshop, hard to say though.

i'd say 3d program used then photoshop to clear them up.

maybe photography using lightbox underneath and processed in photoshop

yes. However it could be made in something like pro desktop as you can see all the different components... Um guessing there was a jig used aka template and the other details added in.

I could do that with illustrator and photoshop. It would take a whiel though.

what about these pictures, they look like they are made on computer, are they hard to make?

If you're familiar with Illustrator, no.

how long will it take someone with competance of that to make it, I know everyone is different, but will it take 5 mins, 10 mins, 30 mins?

WotDa · 21 Feb 2008 at 22:35

Hard to judge tbh, as you mentioned, but I'd guess a few minutes for each.
