body paint like freeware?

Miscellaneous Forums/Content Creation Tools/body paint like freeware?

BodyPaint is also available as a stand alone application, AFAIK, although as a plug-in it would improve workflow from within your own personal favorite 3D program. Plug-ins are available for Lightwave, 3D Studio, Maya and, of course, Maxon's own Cinema 4D. So if you own one of those programs you're all set :)

Several movie studios use BodyPaint, so it must be pretty good!

You can download a demo of BodyPaint v2, as well as the base,XL and Studio versions of Cinema 4D R8 (which includes BodyPaint v2) at Maxon's website:
www.maxoncomputer.com (very impressive website, support and program!)

I only wish I had the $$$ to get the XL or Studio version :(

The base version is $595, or about $400 with their competitive upgrade...

I'm saving my pennies...
