Amazing, photo-like 3D prints without a multi material 3D printer? That’s exactly what Hueforge can deliver. Taking advantage of the fact that filaments aren’t opaque and instead let light transmit through them, it combines an image to 3D STL function with predictive colour blending to achieve the required result. In this video, I take you through an introductory tour of HueForge, so you can decide if it is something you may wish to try yourself. You should!
I purchased this software with my own money. All opinions are my own. Thanks to Cory for requesting the video.
