Toronto, Canada; March 25, 2009 -- Blacksmith3D, an independent 3D graphics design applications company has launched a new version of its 3D Painting, Morphing, & Modeling Software – Blacksmith3D-Suite v3.2, allowing easy integration with 3ds Max & featuring Alpha Mask Support.
Offering a large variety of painting & image editing tools, as well as easy to use morphing and bonus modeling tools; this package was designed to streamline 3D texturing & painting workflow and intended for artists to paint textures directly onto the 3D models utilizing smooth continuous brush strokes.
The new Blacksmith3D-Suite v3.2 software package allows you to:
• paint across UV seams as if they didn't exist
• paint textures with Alpha Masks (RGBA)
• use the Clone Tool for texturing (just like in Photoshop™) directly to/from the 3D models
• auto UV Map objects with a click of a single button (or use existing UV Mapping)
• use 'touch-up' painting tool with Smudge & Blur, Hue & Saturation, etc.
• use the Soft Selection Tool to paint & morph models in a smooth, organic way.
• use smooth continuous brush strokes to paint directly on the model with optional drawing tablet support
• compatible with most design packages that import/export OBJ files
“The entire philosophy of Blacksmith3D-Paint can be summed up in two words, 'Just Paint'. With a single click, auto UV Map an object, or use an already mapped, choose a brush, and 'Just Paint'! I spent years developing the techniques for seamless painting so the artist doesn't have to spend time tweaking UV maps & fixing UV seams and focus on creating great art.",
explains the lead developer, and CEO of Blacksmith3D, David Fielder.
”With so few 3D paint applications on the market, Blacksmith3D-Paint is both powerful and affordable, which makes it a welcome addition to any 3D graphic artist's tool set.”
Availability
The software includes a freeware version (including alpha mask support & the 3ds Max plug-in), as well as the full commercial demos (save/export disabled) available to download via the website.
Blacksmith3D-Suite (which includes the 3D Painting, Morphing, & Modeling tools) is now available on the Blacksmith3D website for $299.95. Blacksmith3D-Paint ($199.95) or Morph ($99.95) may also be purchased separately, as stand alone applications.
