Hello Corona community,
i could use some help/pointers. Lets say you have and character and the client wants you to create a wireframe model out of it but here is the deal, the grid he wants has to be the same thickness and distance and has to be created out of the character he delivered.
To better illustrate what i mean please take a look at the attachment, this was our first try how we would tackle this (just the chest). The answer was that its too organic and he is looking for a more "tech" look, and all the lines must have the same thickness and distance to the previous one....so basically i need to set up a grid that is evenly scattered over the mesh provided.
Any ideas how to do something like this?
The background is that he wants several objects 3d printed in a grid look, so i am not talking about a rendering, it has to be actual geometry.
EDIT: added another image i found online which pretty much looks like what we are after.

Autodesk Meshmixer can do something similar like in your second example and it's meant for 3d printing.

Thanks! Downloading it right now, will report back if it does what we need :)

Thanks again, looks like we can work with it, client is happy :)
Its been out since 2009, i wonder why i never heard about it, had a couple of 3d printing jobs and this would have helped quite a bit.

Yes, Meshmixer is really nifty app, even Autodesk didn't managed to ruin it after acquisition :]
