I LOVE it! You da man over here! Also, that blue one might be my dream guitar as-is! I'm going to go to town on this later...thanks SO much.
I'm glad you're enjoying it : ) That was the idea behind the project after all!

I am working on a way to save your own creations to edit or carry on with at a later stage, but that will be a while off still...

Only thing left I can think of is the change from square heel to an AANJ, and maybe a mahogany choice for the back (since that's a fairly common body wood for a lot of upper-level RG's). If you had a donation thing, I'd probably toss you a few bucks, this is a very cool, useful, and fun tool!

Hey @Soloistthree , thank you for the suggestion of a donation thingy!

another update -

I've reworked the metal-flake paint, you can now get really close to it and it's looks better in general:
Azure Blue Netbook Electric blue Pattern





Also, Soloistthree gave me the idea of having a donation page, so I've added one (see picture below), but please don't feel obliged to contribute, it's just there if you feel like you could toss a few bucks my way. Due to the popularity of this app, I've had to bump up my hosting to a paid account, instead of a free one. This will cost me $20 bucks a month.

Thank you again to everyone for using this : )

Donation sent! Also, NO big thing, but IF you get around to getting an AANJ on there, that would be killer...mahogany wood choice for the back would be rad, but again, this thing has been fantastic, and I appreciate you giving your time to build it and then share it with everyone. If you haven't already noticed it has absolutely blown up on the Ibanez FB groups, I shared it to one of my friends there, and it caught on like wildfire!

Hey @Soloistthree , thank you so much!! I really appreciate the support :D

I'm off for a few days, but when I get back I'll look into doing AANJ, however this might take a little more time than previous updates. It is however on my to do list!

I'm not on any social media so I've not seen the FB Groups to be honest... Mind sharing a link?

Sure thing! So many people were using it that some people felt it was overtaking the group and derailing focus on "what's important"...whatever tf that even is in a FB group. So, just a heads up, you may see some salty posts, in the spirit of "enough already", blah, blah...it reflects an overwhelmingly small amount of the people on there. But yeah, it blew up like mad, for a few days there it was nothing but creation after creation 👍Ibanez FB Group

Thanks for sharing the link, I had a look via my wife's account, i'm glad it's mostly positive feedback, however, my appologies for taking away from 'what's important' on the groups :p

Honestly, I feel like nearly every smaller builder should have something like this (bigger one's too but I assume bigger companies can pay to develop their own software). I'm not a software guy, wish I was as I'd probably be making more than I am, but having the ability to craft something with exactly the features and color you want, is super useful. Not to mention how progressive this type of modeling is, I'm looking at Lepsky and some of the other smaller builders I know, having a 3D render that is this good could really up their brand, get them more exposure, not to mention give the builder something more concrete than having the buyer sending in a photo of something and saying, "like this but darker, or lighter" or whatever. Next step, do it up with Unreal Engine 5.0.3, get those amazing lighting effects going, sell or license it out and make that money :D

Getting pretty close!

I noticed the end of the fretboard has no binding and a random blob is on the body, QC issues at Ibanez? :p

Have you considered painted necks?
