My son has volunteered me to his biology teacher to create a 3d model of a plant cell for her demonstrations in class. She does have an older version of Poser, so .obj is fine. I guess he doesn't fully understand that my main skill is in texturing, not modeling.

I'm pretty sure that for anyone with any real modeling abilities, these are 5-10 minute models to create. I will post a pic now and then a follow up post with the details. Some parts will be able to be done with primitives alone.

Once I have all the necessary models. I will texture them and then pack them up. I'll also create a short animation with labels for the parts.

Is there anyone who is willing to model even one or two of these parts for me? The bad part is I need them quickly, preferably today. My son is a gem at giving me virtually no notice for things.

So I need:

The Cell - including cell wall and cell membrane.

Mitochondrion

Chloroplast

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum

Golgi Bodies

The rest I believe I can do with primitives alone.

Any and all help is GREATLY appreciated!!

Seems like most of these can be done with primitives (scaled and strecthed spheres, cylinders, etc), with a nice textures, such as: http://www.turbosquid.com/3d-models/eukaryotic-animal-cell-3d-3ds/682308

That would be super quick.

That would be super quick. But 31.00 gah lol.

The ones I listed were the ones I wasn't sure how to do with primitives. Thanks for the tip, I will go that route if I can't get these any other way.

edit: I've been able to do cell wall and membrane myself since posting.

Oh, no I didn't mean buying that, I just meant that it looked like that person modeled something that looked similar with only primitives. I am not a good modeller, so I would look for the easy way out! :tongue1: Good luck!

3dscience may have some free models

@jjroland,

I'm on the way to having a (schematic) model of a plant cell. With a bit of luck I might get it finished sometime tomorrow evening. If you want to IM me with an email address I'll send you what I have so far.
