New Member GranDaddy Posted March 25, 2014 New Member Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 Hi guys I'm fairly new to 3D coat and i would like to know how you can make "clean" brush strokes such as strait lines or cut out polygons with the use of some kind of ruler/french curve tool. Im trying to make a sword with a blade that has curves and strait lines and i end up just using the normal brush tool but i can never get the lines to look strait or have clean curves because my hands are not very stable. Does 3D coat have a tool like the ones i described? or do you guys end up using another program like maya or blender to make strait lines and basic geometrical shapes?

Javis Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 You can definitely do this in 3DC, try the "E" Panel (The "E" key on your keyboard). Those modes let you do all sorts of things, including curves. Each one is a little different. The E Panel also contains all of the pressure sensitive brushing modes, and also lasso modes.
