DGArt is a 3D modeling tool designed for artists, game designers, and developers to create 3D assets and content from start to finish. It is affordable, complete, and easy to learn and use. With DGArt on your iPad, you can effortlessly construct 3D models, art, and computer graphics images.DGArt supports a variety of geometric primitives, including built-in geometry types such as spheres, boxes, planes, and text. It also features editable polygons that can be accessed through an edit mode, supporting extrusion, inset, loop cuts, and more.
DGArt creates a .scn file. This is the data structure used to store the geometry, nodes, lights, and camera. This format can be used in the Playgrounds App for your apps or games.
Please refer to SceneKit in the Apple Developer Documentation for more details.

SCN file to Playgrounds App:
• The .scn file can be used in the Playgrounds app, allowing you to create your own custom 3D apps or games on your iPad.
PolyPlane project use in Playgrounds
Export to .usdz files:
• Can be imported into 3D modeling software such as 3ds Max, Maya, Blender, Cinema 4D, and more.• Can be converted to other 3D file formats using third-party converters.
PolyHouse ► USDZ ► Blender Render
• TurnTable Preview, preview your model in turn around mode.
For artists, game designers, and developers who frequently travel, work as freelancers, or prefer to work on a tablet rather than a desktop, this mobile 3D design tool is a wonderful alternative.
