WaterColor3D for 3ds Max

Introduction

Computer graphics can be seen in all kinds of fields such as movies, television, commercials, games, etc. The creation of 3DCGs is also turning into a hobby for many enthusiasts, pushing the demand for new, never before seen expressions.

WaterColor3D is a non-photorealistic rendering engine that produces images that have the appearance of soft watercolor paintings similar to illustrations painted on a canvas using a brush. It is used as a 3ds Max plug-in and can also handle animation.

Traditional image editing software process images using 2D filters, so many are unable to handle animation, or if they do, they tend to introduce noise-like artifacts in the images. "WaterColor3D" uses an original algorithm which solves these problems so that clear watercolor like animations can be created.

Settings Panel

WaterColor3D works seamlessly as a part of 3ds Max. The user chooses one of the available brush types and can then adjust a variety of parameter items such as brush size, size variation, initial angle, angle variation, coarseness, shadow and fade. Watercolor-like soft expressions and multicolored expressions such as those created by brush strokes can be achieved thanks to the flexibility of the parameters.
