3D modelling — build anything you can imagine, on your computer

A Minecraft-style castle, the Eiffel Tower, a vehicle of your own. On this path your child learns 3D design from scratch — and we print the best models and ship them home.

Age

Ages 8–15, projects matched to age and level

Plans

Available in the Explorer, Creator and Innovator plans — higher plans unlock more challenging project scenarios.

The programme — what you'll build

No theory for theory's sake. This path's programme is a list of projects of increasing difficulty — each one ends with something you can show.

Stage 1 · Start

First shapes and a keychain

You get to know a 3D modelling program and immediately build your first project from basic shapes — a keychain or a simple figurine.

Stage 1 · Start

A character inspired by your favourite game

You model a figure out of block-like shapes: proportions, joining parts and your first details.

Stage 2 · Middle

A castle straight out of Minecraft

A big build with towers, walls and a gate. You learn to work on a grid, copy elements and keep your project tidy.

Stage 2 · Middle

The Eiffel Tower and real-world structures

You model from photos of real objects — scale, proportions and the patience for detail.

Stage 2 · Middle

Vehicles of your own

A car, a ship, or a vehicle nobody has invented yet. Bolder and bolder shapes and a style of your own.

Stage 3 · Advanced

Moving parts and turning a photo into a 3D model

Hinges, closing boxes and lifting photos into the third dimension — techniques adults will envy.

DesignSpark Mechanical

From sketch to model

Example projects from our scenarios: from a flat sketch, through the next stages, to a finished solid.

Iron Man helmet

Working from two photos, you sketch the curves and sweep them into the shape of the helmet.

  1. Arc of the helmet’s top curve sketched on a plane

    1You sketch the helmet’s curve

  2. Partly built helmet shell made of swept surfaces

    2You sweep sketches into the next parts

  3. Finished helmet model in DesignSpark Mechanical

    3Finished model

Desk fan

A helix on a cylinder becomes the propeller, followed by the housing, base and legs.

  1. Cylinder with a spiral blade created as a helix

    1You create a helix on a cylinder

  2. Three-blade propeller seen from the front

    2You repeat the blades in a circular pattern

  3. Finished model of a desk fan on legs in DesignSpark Mechanical

    3Finished model

Phone stand

You build the back support, the front stop and an openwork base.

How is this different from other ways of learning?

Vs. IT classes at school

School IT rarely goes beyond documents and slideshows. Here your child learns the tools real products are designed in.

Vs. internet tutorials

A tutorial shows one model. A mentor teaches design thinking — so your child can later model their own idea, not just copy someone else’s.

Vs. group courses

Modelling needs individual feedback: a 1-on-1 mentor watches your child’s project as it grows and guides with questions, not ready-made answers.

What's in it for you?

  • You create anything you can imagine in 3D — from figurines to buildings
  • Your models can be printed and put on a shelf
  • You learn the tools designers start their careers with
  • You develop your own style instead of copying tutorials
  • A portfolio of models to show off on Discord and in competitions

For parents

What does this path develop?

3D modelling is geometry in practice: proportions, scale and solids stop being textbook abstractions. Your child develops creativity, spatial imagination and the ability to carry long projects through to the end.

Start with a free first project

Your child designs their first 3D model for free in about 20 minutes. Questions about this path? Write to us.
