# Modeling

Modeling 3D models.

{% hint style="info" %}

## Difficulty: <mark style="color:yellow;">**Easy**</mark>

{% endhint %}

This guide is NOT a guide on 3D modeling itself, if you would like to learn, we recommend using the latest version of [Blender](https://www.blender.org/) (it's free) and watching a few tutorials on YouTube.

This guide is aimed at people who have the modeling basics down. Many people wanting to contribute are new to modeling so while there’s some general art advice, everything applies to SS3D.

The topics are in order of priority. Silhouettes are the most important thing, try not to add color or detail until you're satisfied with the shape of the model.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://ss3d.gitbook.io/art-guide/3d/modeling.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `build a script that syncs our docs to a CMS` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
