So I thought I'd play with one of the free 3D vector graphics I downloaded from what I believe is the Vectric site, and have a question.
Should the flowers/leaves follow the contour of the frame? I like how it looks, but am just curious if there's a "standard" way of doing these.
By the way, two rail sweeps are cool!
Also, I do realize that this frame requires some tweaks to look correct (the inside indent is too deep, etc.), and that I'd have create a file to pocket the back in order to lay the picture. This was really just a practice in how to get 2 rail sweeps to work with a rectangle so that the corners weren't tweaked, and to play with a 3D vector. I also went bonkers on the profiling toolpaths... need to fix those too.
