Could anyone here on Answers link a tutorial or write a short guide on how to turn 2D nets into 3D shapes using either Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop? (both CS5)
I am quite the CS5 n00b :P
i have the nets - 6 sides
all i want to know is how to virtually fold it up and construct the shape on the computer
Answer
The true answer is simple: You CANNOT convert a 2D image into a 3D representation [full stop].
Photoshop, nor Illustrator, is good at that either: it tries to interprete a 2D image to "extract" the third dimension (the depth), but this is NEVER correct.
The only way to create a mesh (or a shape) in 3D is to use a 3D software (like 3DS Max), and use 2 2d images (ie Front and Profile) to recreate the 3D shape. Even this is not good enough: you do not have the "hidden dimensions" (the back, the other side!).
To TRULY make a 3D shape, you need 6 images (the faces of a cube), or use a 3D scanner...

If you stick your head in a bucket of cement that should work.

How you get your face into the computer is either you model it (lot of work) or you have access to a 3D laser scanner. That is fairly easy, can however still be time consuming if you want to put a number of scans together. If there is a university where you live, check out their engineering or art department if they have one. If not forget about it, unless you happen to be really rich, it's going to be more expensive than a new car.
Before you start see that you know you have access to some way to print it or get it milled. Make sure you know the requirement for the mesh and make sure you have access to the appropriate programs which generate the correct mesh.
Unless you have access to everything (e.g. you are at university and it has the equipment) it will be faster and easier and cheaper if you do body casting and make a mold of your face. How to do this has been explained in this forum many times, there are websites and books, so you should have no problems finding it out if you are serious about it.
