The idea of starting a three-dimensional modeling company isn’t something that occurs to a lot of people, but David Hebert couldn’t stop talking about it for two years before doing something about it.
“Originally, I wanted to start this company because it is something that I love to do,” Hebert says. “Additionally, having worked in the architectural field for close to four years now, I have seen the increasing demand for the services we offer.”
Hebert will serve as CEO of his new business called 3D-Lievable. Two friends have joined him: Paulo Perkins as COO and Jimmy Williams as CFO. Hebert met Perkins as a fellow architecture student at LSU, where they are fifth-year students who plan to graduate in May.
“The demand for our services is increasing at a rapid rate, and there are multiple industries that benefit from it,” he says. “In addition, the new technology of three-dimensional printing is not yet publicly offered in the area, allowing us to initially hold 100% of the market share.”
Three-dimensional modeling involves digitally enhancing a two-dimensional image so it can be viewed in different perspectives with the most common being photo-realistic. From this image, Hebert says they can then produce a 3-D physical model with a 3-D printer.

Hebert says their work helps clients better demonstrate complex projects as well as to help those designing or developing a project to more readily spot potential issues from design to color flaws.
“Our special edge is the three-dimensional printer, along without modeling techniques,” he says. “We are able to produce multiple products, simultaneously, therefore providing a high-quality product at a lower cost.
“These two combined—the ability to create a three-dimensional computer model, which can be printed into a physical object gives us the ultimate edge over competitors. This also allows us to extend our clientele to product designers and other manufacturers.”
