conversion of 2D to 3D

Post by Stumpy »

I have a 2D rendering of a grammar school mascot. Does anyone know how to convert to 3D or if anyone offers a service to convert it.
Thanks in advance.

Depends what software you own. As you've posted in the Cut3D section I'm assuming you own that but you may not.

If only we had that magic button...
No
3D is a whole different thing

Thanks. That is what I thought but always dreaming. What's the old expression, "If wishes were horses, beggars would ride." Thanks for taking the time to respond.

Holy cows, my algebra teacher in 1980 said the same thing to me right before he threw the chalk board eraser at my head. I did have to take a break from school for a minute...
