Digital Sculpting

Voxel (volumetric) sculpting key features:

– No topological constraints. Sculpt as you would with Clay

– Complex boolean operations. Fast kit bashing workflow

Traditional sculpting offers you such powerful technology as:

– Adaptive dynamic tesselation (Live Clay)

– Dozens of fast and fluid sculpting brushes

– Boolean operations with crisp edges
