Possible 3D resources thread #2

[MilkmanConspiracy]

I’m not sure I can help much, with my experience with 3D for art being somewhat limited.

That said, if you’re looking for free 3D stuff, I know of a few resources. These probably aren’t of use to you, and I’m not sure how useful they are to DAZ (Especially the 3D Printer stuff, since those are often geometry not textured or designed to pose, but just in case it does help, here are some sites, along with their country of origin.

• Printables - 3D Print oriented. Operated by Prusa Research of the Czech Republic. Mix of free and paid 
  
• MyMiniFactory - 3D Print Oriented, often a little more artsy and tabletop oriented than Printables. Lots of paid stuff, but there’s free stuff too. Operated out of the United Kingdom.
  
• Thingiverse - 3D Print Oriented. operated by Makerbot, based in the United States, but part of/merged with Ultimaker, a Dutch company with significant operations in the United States, itself owned by other American, Dutch, and other investors. I don’t really recommend it, but would be remiss not to mention it given its prominence.
  
• OpenGameArt - Game Dev Oriented - Nationality unknown.
  
• Itch.io - General Digital Marketplace, including assets. Quality highly variable due to low barrier to entry. Creator is from the United States. Site itself appears to be based out of California from the TOS. Has free stuff and paid stuff, but I understand if you would rather avoid it all together.
  
• MakeHuman has a number of assets. Nationality unknown.
  
• Godot Asset Library - Game Dev Oriented. Engine creators are Argentine, but the Godot Foundation is Dutch. Mostly engine specific stuff, but there’s 3D Art in there.
  

Additionally, you may check out Lumion. It’s not free, but it’s very straightforward to use, and has a lot of assets included. Renders beautifully for little effort. It’s Dutch as well.
