I wish there was someone who could code OpenGL or something like that. He could make a program where you could pick colors, inlay etc. and be freely able to rotate the guitar to view it from all angles. Even a 2D-applet would be nice and require much less computing power.

Yeah, that is simple but fantastic idea. Any 3d engines guru around here??
Or any1 who knows 1?

Could you try a jem with the following specs?

Blue burst (black edges, dark blue center)
abalone binding on the body and headstock.
abalone vine on ebony fretboard
black/chrome pickups (1 bobbin chrome, 1 bobbin black)
clear pickguard

I think we'd all like to see one like that

Wow! Sounds just like the custom that I'm building, aside from a few details. See it in person at Jemfest 2003 Orlando.

I can't begin to explain how incredible that it! I think that's my next Jem!!!!!!!!

God = loop?

Do you have a homepage? You have talent! What program are you using? CAD or regular 3D?

He answers that question on page one of this thread, read carefully

Great job loop!!!!

Is that a 3D solid model you've created? Can it be imported into CAD software like Solidworks? I'd love to take your model and try it with the Solidworks Photoworks add-in.

Keep up the great work!

I'll try to model the new Edge trem. We have here only
a few pics (Dex/Caprile's and Rich's from namm),
so I warn you in advance it may not look like 100%

.
cheers

Well, you take some 3D modeling or CAD software and start measuring your JEM. Then you make some textures and such and render it. It's not as simple as it sounds

sounds real easy. well, at least I think I could manage it if I actually had a JEM and if ProE didn't keep screwing my computer up... the blueprint for the JEM body I found here didn't work very well for me...

also, I think some sort of radius gauge would be needed to get correct measures...

what kind of tools do you use for this?

Rodney James · #88 01-20-2003, 12:08 AM

Nice Work!

Brings out so many idea's and inspires the Imagination.

You know? Id like to see a swirled computer someday. i wonder how it would look...

Fabe · #90 01-20-2003, 05:58 AM

Okay, I just fell in love! This has got to be the best JEM (I mean the last one vjems11.jpg) finish ever IMO!!!

Man, now I want another Jem. You're doing great (although it's virtual) work man!!
