Homebrew 3D Modeling and Sculpting on the 3DS

[Axonic3D]

Hi there!

Is there such a thing as a 3D modeling/sculpting app for the 3DS or even the DS? I love using my 3DS to create all sorts of art, especially since I bring it with me nearly everywhere I go. As happy as I am to be able to make drawings with apps like Colors! 3D and Junk Draw by haloopdy or even animations with Flipnote Studio 3D, I'd love to get into making 3D models on the console too.

The closest I could find is a SmileBASIC app called P3D Engine (Petit3D Engine) which comes with a 3D modeling app. The base app (as in, SmileBASIC itself) shouldn't be too hard to learn and by doing so I could add all sorts of features, even making games and animations out of it. I just need to put the time in to learn it though, and gosh knows all the time I spend making something impressive I could've done something actually useful in Blender on my laptop or somethin'.

There's also this guy by the name of Dante Leoncini who created a Blender clone/port for Nokia 95 of all things. That too led me to wonder if the same could be done or even exists for either the 3DS or DS.

TL;DR: Are there any apps akin to Blender, Z-Sculpt, Nomad Sculpt, etc. for making 3D models or sculptures on the 3DS or DS?

No. The 3DS simply doesn't have the RAM needed for such a feat. Not to mention the graphics capabilities are very rudimentary. Somebody might port PicoCAD over, but that's about it.

Honestly, PicoCAD on the 3DS would be dope. I'm down for simple apps, it's why I love Flipnote Studio 3D and Junk Draw so much. Petit3D Engine isn't too different from PicoCAD too, though I'd like to think a port of the latter would feel more streamlined.

If you're crazy enough and a good enough programmer, it's probably possible to even run an extremely stripped down version of a 3D modeling software resembling blender.
Just like this guy did with a Nokia N95:
