AND NOW IN 3DCOAT

Big news!!
Posted: January 21, 2011 by farsthary in General
Hi all!I have an exiting announcement to make: I’m joining Pilgway/3DCoat team!!!!! my Unlimited Clay efforts are higy appreciated by them and I will be collaborating to integrate dynamic subdivision sculpting in 3DCoat.
3DCoat (http://www.3d-coat.com/) is a leading sculpting application in the bleeding edge of volumetric sculpting and retopology and I’m becoming part of the core team!!!!!!!!
I thanks everyone at the Blender community because one way or another you have taken myself to this point and who knows what could bring the future?
For my loyal Blender followers that can be fear of myself leaving Blender developemnt I must say: Don’t be afraid! At first I was a concerned by the possibility of a restrictive NDA, but nothing more far from reality! Pilgway/3DC team is like the Blender team very cool, open and collaborative guys ! ofcourse I can continue blender development and your beloved Unlimited Clay now and in the future
I’m pretty exited because many new things will await us all in the future and also with everyone and God’s help I will carry you all in my heart to my new 3D family, the 3DC team respects a lot the Blender community and with blender becoming mainstream there’s no better time to meet the marriage: I will be a Blender embassador in 3DCoat and a 3DCoat embassador in Blender so this blog wellcomes 3DCoat users as well as Blender ones!
Exiting times await! And as I always said: I have the will and the interest and I will do my best to fullfill the responsability and expectations everyone are investing in me
All the best
FarstharyTom

Dr Petter is engaged by Zbrush:
@unknownuser said:
Sculptris is the brainchild of the bright programmer Tomas Pettersson. Sculptris has captured the hearts of artists with its fun, intuitive and user-friendly interface - indeed a perfectly sweet companion to our big monster ZBrush! Tomas will be moving to California, from Sweden, to join our team. It is our pleasure to welcome Tomas and we look forward to a fruitful collaboration on future Pixologic projects.

The free world lose a lot
(probably Sculptris and Unlimited Clay are now dead projects.. )
Each one: Farsthary and Dr Petter are happy: so we haven't to juge. :
Zbrush and the younger 3DCOAT are engaged in a war.....by the way Sculptris is already a mature program.

A subject for discussion!
I already own zbrsh and 3dcoat, I'm also a blender user, I still don't quite understand what's happening here. The 3dcoat case looks more promising IMO.
The main reason that Farsthary moved to 3dcoat is the multi resolution dynamic topology. If they have a success on this, we'll start talking about the new leader app in 3d sculpture. In any case unlimited clay or voxels, or even zbrush and mudbox, a retopology tool set is needed. And 3dcoat is the real leader here. Its the app that can convert SU meshes to a different topology with a few clicks. -
Dear michaliszissiou You are certainly (with Pilou too) in a good position to hear, smell, and understand what's happening below the waterline of the world of 3d sculpture iceberg.
What I see which probably will give the advantage to Zbrush for a while is that professional people are all connected with Zbrush, and also we can find plenty plenty good tutorials and how-to about Zbrush, and also a very powerful userfriendly community..
I am actually not for buy one of them (expensive as professional softs) with my only recreative activity
so I wait and see...eighth day: 2011-01-22
(I have some very demanding other activities
) Today is to watch some videos about real clay sculpting and also Sculptris sculpting, comfortably installed onto a sofa near the fireplace What we can't do (as far) with Sculptris is to remove/cut material as we do with real clay to model a hand cutting and removing clay to make the fingers..
Here are some the best videos I have found:

Simon
I think you have a promising future in the architectural gargoyle industry. Keep on!

I was arrived to the same conclusion

@unknownuser said:

so I wait and see...So Sculptris + Rendrering in Blender is a very good sufficient choice!
For 0€ you have a winner solution!
Use only the rendering side of Blender is not a so difficult thing! -
Hi,
After I had watched the video, I was tempted to play with Sculptris. I think that you get, with some practice, great results. It's like all programs, you must first master the basic techniques. Here is my attempt to model a human skull.

@Pilou
Ok Pilou, you won I am going to "explore" Blender Just Let me time (may be a month)
and I'm also going to install: Wing3d Moi and Meshlab by your friendly injunctions on my computer (I wanted to do that today but time was used elsewhere )
For now, in rendering I'm using KerkyThea and I'm the happy owner of a Thea Render license..
@Charly,
Hey Charly! Welcome on board! Happy to convince you with my posts and tries. Please keep it on.@unknownuser said:

You have to try 3dcoat. Voxels aren't unlimited clay, this is superior, I bought it exactly because I can cut clay as in real world.
This , cutting clay and some booleans, a five min fun. 3DC isn't sculptris and still, doesn't cost much. The combination of 3dc and zbrush is the most powerful ever. In digital sculpting I mean. This is one mesh, not parts, one mesh that is waiting for auto-topology and export. Or even a direct decimated triangulated mesh, ready for SU. LOL

sculpting master strikes again... 5 minutes for a cyborg? impressive!

Hey Michalis! a Damned five min sculpture!

Now the concept of "unlimited clay" is very clear to me.

while this "auto-retopology" seem's to be another way to simplify the mesh !? but it is yet not completely clear.

which is far to be perfectI am going to be too busy for sculpting these next days...

Your a talented man, you know this?
Now, can you import them to SU? Can you construct UV mapping?
retopology isn't simplification. Its a long story. If you need some help ask me. Always a pleasure. -
For make diversion
By Kargall (1 h) with 3D COAT (voxels)

OMG will you guys (especially you, Michalis) just stop it, please?
Seriously,this is some beautiful work. Something to get inspired by.
Or in Michalis´ case, to "read ´em and weep". -
hi again... cool that this thread is growing.
i have explored sculptris even more... wow, so intuitiv and fun!i have 1 question to ask and a sculpture to share
question: i wanted to make some basic shapes in sketchup to work on in sculptris,
export as obj(thanks for the plugin TIG) this works fine.
problem starts when i try import anything more complicated than a box into sculptris.
i get: "can't import - has faces with more than 4 corners"anyone know about a work around on that?
and a litle sculpt:
-
Very enjoyable thread guys.
Michalis, you are frigging awesome at this stuff, thanks for weighing in.
Simon, keep at it and you will be a sculptor very soon.
I have also tried this app and had a blast, never saved anything worth showing but regardless it is fun. I also noticed the import restriction as I wanted to create a SU/Sculptris work-flow but I guess this is a limitation for a free app, one will need to buy Z-brush for that functionality.
-
Looks like skulls are getting popular...
With 128.129 lines the Obj did crash SU when importing with importer ruby.
btw, get yourself some more shaders for Sculptris, they are really fun to play with. I have quite a few, but unfortunately forgot to bookmark the site. If anyone knows, please post here.
