[non-Blender] Dilay Open Source Sculpting App

10

Looking for new new sculpting options? Give Dilay a test. It's open source and has builds available for Windows and Linux.

Anyone interested in comparing Dilay with Blender's sculpting capabilities and writing a quick report for BlenderNation? Let me know!

Dilay is a 3D sculpting application that provides an intuitive workflow using a number of powerful modeling tools. As each tool locally subdivides the mesh where more details are required, Dilay allows artists to rapidly create complex meshes.

Hat tip to @Nezumi for spotting this.

I have a LONG history with Blender - I wrote some of the earliest Blender tutorials, worked for Not a Number and helped run the crowdfunding campaign that open sourced Blender (the first one on the internet!). I founded BlenderNation in 2006 and have been editing it every single day since then ;-) I also run the Blender Artists forum and I'm Head of Community at Sketchfab.

      We need a 3D Open Source software focused on Sculpt, to replace Zbrush
      Somewhat to what happens with "Natron" considered "The Open Source Nuke"

    Blender it's quite advanced compared to Dilay, but I wonder why every sculpting app has the circle widget sticking to the surface normal and Blender does not, I find it to be a quite important visual cue. Retopoflow addon's widget does it already, but as far as I know I haven't seen implemented in sculpting mode. Hope someone proves me wrong!

    I agree with ELI SPZZICHINO, that should be default on every texture painting and sculpting program.
