Model, animate and render graphics with this amazing application Shade Designer is a great 3D design application that works with your other graphics tools. With ready access to Shade advanced tools, an uncluttered workspace and your imagination, you can discover what kind of digital god you are:· Create Better 3D Characters. Character designers require Shade for the simplicity of living curves. Create breathtaking characters with natural 3D curves that are easy to modify, transform and animate.· Build Places, Locations, Environments. Traditional polygon artists can avoid curves and use the arsenal of poly selection and transformation tools to create buildings, mechanics and levels. Render into art, export for a game.· Render a Living World. Add effects, animated hair, smoke, flame and more, then render with the hyper-realistic Callisto renderer; add 3D audio directly into your animation in formats for traditional film or online video.· Transform 2D Old into 3D New. Professional illustrators and designers can re-use their work to transform 2D designs into fully 3D creations. Avoid perils of complexity with an uncluttered canvas and just the palettes you need. Here are some key features of "Shade Designer": · Create professional 3D artwork and animation · Build more kinds of models for art, animation, games · Design more realistic looking characters · More 3D options for working with Photoshop and Illustrator · Extend Shade with new capabilities for your projects · Deliver 3D movies with 3D audio, Poser integration · Everything in Shade Designer. You get all the features found in Shade Design, and more. · Easy, Sensible Workspace. Open workspace that lets you avoid interface overload, but easy access to powerful curved surface modeling and rendering tools. · Transformational Polygon, MetaMesh Tools.Along with curved surface modeling, add 22 polygon modeling tools for working with other content, or producing game content, MetaMesh (MetaBalls,MetaCubes, MetaCylinders, and MetaPolygons) and powerful Boolean tools. · Smart and Smarter Rigging, Joints and Animation.Easy to use joints (Rotator, Slider, Scale, Uni-scale, Light, Path, Morph, Ball) make transformation easy, including constrained parameter dials, bones and skinning; SmartKinematics works with Inverse Kinematics (IK) for smart, complex character and model animation. · Hair Salon. Based on an easy to use guide hairs system, create hair with variable shading, density, curl and more; achieve greater character expression and realism by using this complete hair creation and editing tool kit. · Integrated Learning Materials. 80 pages of beginner's tutorials, starting with "What are 3D Computer Graphics?", "How to Model a Horse" and the creation of a 3D animated text movie.
