For example, they can pull, twist, and pinch the surface, easily adding volume as needed without the rigorous attention to underlying structure that is typically associated with 3D modeling programs.

Users can do just about anything that's possible with real clay. With Sculptris, triangles are automatically added as needed, and only to the areas where a stroke has been applied to the surface. Sculptris introduces a dynamic tessellation system, enabling users to sculpt or paint freely on any part of the surface, without having to worry about underlining geometry. 'The Sculptris 3D modeling solution offers artists a platform to harness their imagination and create 3D sculpts in a way that is unique to the digital world,' she continues. The development and latest release of Sculptris is consistent with the Pixologic ethos and spirit to help artists both shine at and enjoy creating art - intuitively, without having to worry about technical barriers, says a company representative. Los Angeles, Calif - Pixologic Inc., maker of ZBrush software, has released its Sculptris 3D modeling solution for Windows and Mac operating systems.
