Surface-based geometric modeling has many advantages in terms of visualization and
traditional subtractive manufacturing using computer-numerical-control cutting-machine …

We present a new framework for sketch-based modeling and animation of 3D organic
shapes that can work entirely in an intuitive 2D domain, enabling a playful, casual …

Sketch-based modeling provides a powerful paradigm for geometric modeling. Recent
research had shown, sketch based modeling methods are most effective when targeting a …

Choosing the right representation for geometry is crucial for making 3D models compatible
with existing applications. Focusing on piecewise-smooth man-made shapes, we propose a …

The freeform architectural modeling process often involves two important stages: concept
design and digital modeling. In the first stage, architects usually sketch the overall 3D shape …

Sketching is one of the most natural ways for representing any object pictorially. It is
however, challenging to convert sketches to 3D content that is suitable for various …

Creative processes of artists often start with hand‐drawn sketches illustrating an object. Pre‐
visualizing these keyframes is especially challenging when applied to volumetric materials …

We introduce a novel technique for the construction of a 3D character proxy, or canvas,
directly from a 2D cartoon drawing and a user-provided correspondingly posed 3D skeleton …

It can be easy and even fun to sketch humans in different poses. In contrast, creating those
same poses on a 3D graphics “mannequin” is comparatively tedious. Yet 3D body poses are …

We present a new approach to reconstruction of high-relief surface models from hand-made
drawings. Our method is tailored to an interactive modeling scenario where the input …
