Voxel Modeling Program?

oXYnary

Ok someone was telling me about this Voxel (I thought it was voxels) Modeling Program made by a Russian developer called something like 3d Armor. I cant seem to find it with a google search. Any ideas what he was referencing? Supposedly higher modeling can be done with it than even zbrush.

3dcoat, big thread about it on here somewhere

funny that is was easier to find that thread with google than the forums search.

Yea, but when you try to google armor 3d vorxel, you get everything but.

Thanks for correction. (I was thinking coat of arms for some reason).

Heh... that google comment wasn't meant as a dig on your forum searching.. just that when I searched the forum for '3d coat' I got nothing, but searching google for '3d coat polycount' I got the thread first try.

3d coat seems to be vector displacement (like Modo), not voxel. I havent seen any voxel sculpting software besides the Crysis terrain editor.

SkyGround

commander_keen 3dcoat support voxel sculpting from version 3.0. Also it supports standart polygon sculpting like zbrush, has very awesome tools for retopology. )) I was on its presentation on CGEvent 2008 in Moscow - very nice program

Yeah I think it really is voxels rather than vector displacement

there is also Claytools or it's bigger brother Freeform by Sensable, have the hard and software for claytools here but didn't use it since the release of mudbox, maybe it had some cool updates
