CB Model pro

A nifty little app, very much like Z-brush and free.
Sketchup is organically challenged at the moment so if you have a need for a free form fender, face, creature, fruit etc this app may work well for you.
It is extremely easy to use, I will even venture to say it is as easy as Sketchup. This would be a great start to all trying to get to grips with Z-brush.
It exports to .obj and there are scripts available to import .obj's, however the size of even the most simple doodle may be too much to be used productively within SU (until hopefully soon higher poly's are supported)I chose to import model into Vue 6inf and texture it, bake it and export .3ds, which imported easy into SU and with textures already mapped (another issue with SU at moment)
Here is the link to download this FREE app. http://www.cbmodelpro.com/
below is a quick, really quick model (took 4 minutes to make in CB) with export, Vue, import into SU and render it took about 16 minutes (considering the Podium render was only 56 seconds) -
Thanks for starting the thread, Pete. I was going to review it but my copy seems to have timed-out. So if you find it useful you'll need to register as a Beta tester to carry on using it. No big deal I would have thought for such a handy free app.

Thx for the heads up.
