Purchased this new tool from CGCookie yesterday and all I could say was wow! Since starting the Character Modeling project and working with the Dynamic Topology tools and getting close to the retopology part of the project I have been hesitant to begin that portion. This project has taken a long time (in days, not hours) and has pushed me to the limit when it comes to this type of work. I find that CGCookie released a new tool to help in the process of retopology and decided to go ahead and spend the 30.00 for the beta and upgrades and I am more than impressed with this tool and it’s simplicity and in a sentence, the addon just works. This weekend I will upload a couple simple pictures of me just playing around with the sculpting tools, not making anything close to impressive and the difference it makes (plus its fun).
I am very surprised by the response of some individuals on BlenderNation from the likes of:
‘harris3d’: “This is obvious a Modo’s contour tool copy ! That would be illegal to distribute it and much more to charge for it, selling it is way illegal Jonathan.”
Then the moron had the audacity of posting his own blog as proof of his statements… I know, logical huh?
I guess he doesn’t know the meaning of the word ‘Libel’ and it’s implications since he posted online for all to see and never be removed, ya again logical.
Just in case he runs across this and wants a definition of the word:
Libel is defined as defamation by written or printed words, pictures, or in any form other than by spoken words or gestures.
Defamation—also called calumny, vilification, or traducement—is the communication of a false statement that harms the reputation of an individual, business, product, group, government, religion or nation. (This harris3d is actually illegal)
Happy Friday everyone!! 🙂
Hey Michael!
I’m thrilled to see you’re liking Contours so far. After you’ve had some more time to play with it I’d love to hear any feedback you might have.
The forums are a great place to put feedback 🙂
