Speaker A
This is my dog Uinta, and I want to turn her into a realistic Minecraft build for her upcoming birthday.
Speaker A
The problem is that every time I try, it ends up kind of scuffed because of how fluffy she is.
Speaker A
Which means the only way I'm going to do it right is by 3D scanning her in real life to physically convert her into Minecraft.
Speaker A
So first I tried scanning her casually, but she just got kind of confused and walked off.
Speaker A
Luckily, she's motivated by treats, so I grabbed a few and tried again, but this time told her to stay.
Speaker A
Stay, Uinta!
Speaker A
Which kind of worked, but she had way too much energy and just zoomed to my hand that had the treat.
Speaker A
Now, the only other thing Uinta likes is new toys, so as a final attempt, I grabbed every single new toy we have.
Speaker A
And told her she would get one if she stayed still.
Speaker A
Surprisingly, it absolutely backfired and she got way too excited, jumping all over the place, so I had to just give her a toy without the scan.
Speaker A
But after letting her play with it for a few hours, she got tired, and I was barely able to scan her before she moved too much.
Speaker A
Good job, Uinta!
Speaker A
Then I used ObjToSchematic to convert her model into the largest and cutest dog build I've ever seen!
