Cool! Today progs are really astonishing!

"......Today progs are really astonishing!"

.... and often more than that. I am often at a loss
for words to express how impressed I am.
And in the case of Zbrush, I have to add to this
amazement that the update is free again.

One feature that amazes me in this update is this
Video here about that "Stroke Interpolate" thing.

And here especialy at Minute 6:38 and 8:31

Yeah, Pixologic is rocking again lately. ZBrush updates sometimes had a gap of around 1.5 years, but I guess they shifted into higher gear since Blender's Sculpt Mode is getting more and more competitive.

In French but with subtitles!

New version of MagicaVoxel ! 0.99.6.4

With Hifoo kitbash :) (10 second modeling! )

Super cool :)
Amazing app!

The very cool thing about the last version 0.99.6.4 is the automatic Pattern Panel!
Here for example the amazing Hifoo Kitbash ! All modules are displayed in a glance!
So just Drag & Drop in a maximized matrix's Model ! ( 9 , 0, = ) for rotate (Modules / Patterns)

For inspiration!
Amazing French artist! ;)

MagicaVoxel : always cool to use! Better in Maxi zoom! :)

Just imagine with any variation colors! Infinite beauties! :wink:
The process : free Aerialod Drag & Drop any image on its screen! https://ephtracy.github.io/index.html?page=aerialod
(not yet vox format export only PLY 3D) so convert with free FileToVox PLY --> vox --> MagicaVoxel :partying_face:
https://github.com/Zarbuz/FileToVox

This is really cool. I like :)
Looks like a mega city to me.

And of course Magicavoxel is awesome.

PS - even no need to use Aerialod ! Only FileToVox (GUI for more easy use)! :sunglasses:
Add same file color as your original if same needing colors!
Take an image PNG 256 colors et voilà! :partying_face: (here 20 matrices 126 * 126 * 126 so a very big one)
All the process is something like 15 seconds on a seven year old machine !
I don't want imagine with an up to date computer! ;)

Hello all

Some of you might be looking for a good vector graphics
program for illustrations.

I can highly recommend, to take a look at "VectorStyler" (Mac/PC).
No subscription, one time fee 95.- USD / 84.- Euro.

I know and have seen a lot of vector programs. "VectorStyler" is one
of the most feature rich vector program I have seen in a long time.
It seems to me that the Devs have developed this program along the
lines of " you wish, we deliver ".

Here are some highlights:
Has a shapebuilder tool, blends objects even lines with gradients
( the line and gradients are also blended ), Align objects on a path,
mesh gradients, deform objects with a mesh , Symbols and the List
goes on and on ....
( it comes even with a build in Vector Tracer! )

There is a demo that works for 42 days.
( Maybe a reference to Douglas Adams " Hitchhikers Guide to ... ??? :) )

Here is the link to the website.
https://www.vectorstyler.com/

Attached is a blend example.
These are lines! No objects.

Cool but have you try Affinity Designer (half of the price) ;)

Hi Pilou

Of course ;-)
I have Affinity Designer on PC and Ipad and like it very much.
But if you read the Wishlist in the Affinity Forum, even smaller
wishes are pretty old and still only Wishes.

On the one hand VectorStyler fulfills these wishes and offers
a lot more and for that I find 95.- USD / 84.- Euro a bargain from my point of view.

I can just recommend to download the Demo and have a look at VectorStyler.

Name remember a cool one in the past PhotoStyler ;) (not vectorial)
https://winworldpc.com/product/aldus-photostyler/2x

Oh, yes ;-)
The good guys from the past ;-).
I remember one whose name was "Satori", I think.
A vector/bitmap mix.

Btw I still use Creature House Expression (also kind of Vector/Bitmap Mix)
it is installed on my PC, works well with Win 10. I like the Brushes.

Ah yes this one was very funny !
A French guy made a cool tuto presentation of it! (2003) Expression 3 - Creature House
alas some images are not more available! :(

Ps have you a free version for windows 10 ? Where can we download it ? i found for the moment only a mac version...

Yes, have the free Version "Expression 3.3" but no
Link where you could download it. Seems no more
avaible.

Alternative could be the also free Microsoft Epression Design 4.
Works on Win 10, it even have more Brushes. Very cool ones.
