DEVELOPMENT
I am actively working on the development of this addon and will keep improving and introducing new features. Moving forward this addon will change its name to "Curve Shapes" due to new planned additions.
At the moment I am rewriting the addon for scalability and more workflows other than just sculpting.
"Version 3.0 is planned to be released in the fall of 2023 and it will be a new way of modelling in Blender."
I plan to create a Discord server or a GitHub page where users can accompany and participate in the development of this project.
Roadmap
- Make curve shape a new type of object
- Mesh auto construct while editing curves
- Cap ends with options
- Options for spline connecting edges
- Keep curve shape after converting
- Initial primitive objects
- Select verts in edit mesh and control them with a curve
Updates Pricing
As new features are added the price of this addon will increase but FULL VERSION customers will always get updates for free.
