POLY MODELING + VISUALIZATION

My preferred tool for quick concept modeling, visualization, and animation. I can attain nearly Class-A surface quality using my custom add-on. Paired with a gaming mouse, this setup greatly enhances efficiency in my design process.

PLASTICITY

NURBS MODELING

Relatively new to the market, Plasticity is my weapon of choice for NURBS modeling, due to its refreshing workflow, modern UI and cross-compatibility with Blender. It is constantly updated and is currently sitting next to Rhino in terms of capabilities.
