This paper presents a system that allows the user to perform 3D modelling and sculpting using postures and 3D movements of their hands. The system utilises the concept of a Natural User Interface using computer vision techniques. This enables the user to operate 3D modelling software. The system's bimanual control allows left hand postures to select control mode commands, while the right hand controls movements. To evaluate the real world performance of the concept of motion and hand-posture-based control in 3D modelling, a usability test with 10 people was conducted. Participants were asked to perform test tasks that involved moving an object in 3D space. These participants performed the tasks multiple times while being timed, both with the mouse and using the 3D hand tracking system. The results indicated that participants who used the hand tracking system completed the tasks more quickly than those who used the mouse. However, approximately half of the participants reported that they found it easier to use the mouse than the hand tracking system. Overall, the participants reported that they enjoyed using the system.
