On CL website there is this note in the product features "...MagicalSketch, a 2D digital pen tool to sketch 2D lines and watch 3D solids take shape automatically", but I can't find any example in their gallery. Someone that purchsed Shade could please post an image?

Did this real quick in the demo. Hope you can tell what it is. Marque

Gotta love the Magic Sketch. That tool is really brilliant. But the rest of shade :o/ Can't say I like that interface.. Looks very japanese (as in how the other japanese modelers I've tried look) but I don't like it. Still haven't decided it I should get Shade. Not too long to my b-day... First impression however is that apart from the Magic Sketch.. it's a "naaah"

Ahh... now I see! I misunderstood the text and I though it was a sort of cell shading tool... Well, it looks like a good feature to "model" organic stuff. Thanks both of you for answering my post!

I am just playing at the moment but I like it so far.

I have to agree, don't think I'll be grabbing this one. Marque

Rather interesting you should mention how the other japanese tools look like Shade... Metasequioa (which is definitely the best competitor there is that I've seen) and the four or five other tools out there are all actually attempts at doing an "improved" version of Shade, which has been the predominant modeler in japan for years. It's only been the last two years that Shade's begun losing marketshare in japan (primarily to metasequoia). ODF has users of Maya, Rhino, C4D, Wings, and a few other specialty tools. What works for one doesn't work for the other -- interface has an enormous impact on the user in modeling. One never knows what one will find useful until you try it. Shade 5, with magical sketch when it first came out, was kick butt. If the demo hadn't expired, it'd still be in use at ODF -- and in the hands of someone with skill using a tablet, it becomes an extremely powerful tool.
