Even beyond that, many 3D CAD enthusiasts have embarked on the challenge to capture their curvature-laced detail by digitally bringing these helmets to life.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t believe me?

As you may remember hearing at <strong>3D<\/strong>EXPERIENCE World, Brad is a degreed mechanical engineer who has a passion for making \u2013 and showing his creations to his doting YouTube audience that, today, boasts almost 600k subscribers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/03\/impact-props-3dexperience-works.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" \/><\/p>\n<p>On stage, Brad released a video showing the power of 3D Sculptor and 3D Creator.

This, when used with either SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD or 3D Creator (providing the parametric \u2018punch\u2019), can be super effective in increasing ideation and decreasing modeling\/editing times.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/03\/3d-sculptor-helmet.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Want to make easier surface modeling a part of your design process today? <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/2x6gUah\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Try 3D Sculptor for yourself here<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">But that was just \u201con stage.\u201d Lots happened before and after Impact Props appeared with other companies like watchX, Awake Boards, and RIZE \u2013 just a few examples of longtime SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD users who\u2019ve embraced tools like 3D Sculptor at this phase to elevate their design processes.<\/p>\n<p>For one: we were in Nashville, TN most of the week! And if you\u2019ve ever been to Nashville, you know it\u2019s action-packed with fantastic music and good times \u2013 whether it\u2019s a Tuesday night (when we held our Bash on Broadway) or any other night of the week.
