Extruding 2D Objects into 3D Objects

Now that you have created these shapes, you need to convert them into 3D objects. In this simple example, you just extrude them. For more sophisticated ways to create 3D objects from 2D shapes look up the term Loft in the list of Demonstrations.

  1. Select the head of the man.
  2. Click on the Modify icon.
  3. Click the Extrude button.
  4. Enter 10 in the Amount parameter.

  5. You'll see the object get thicker in the top view.

Repeat this procedure to extrude the rest of the objects in the scene.
