Stitch Witch is a tool that makes it easy for the average user to create textures for 3D models. Have you ever wanted to take an outfit, and change colors, layers, pockets, collars, buttons, fabric, etc? When you buy textures from artists, you are limited to the styles they provide you. However, Poser users often have a need for a specific item of clothing that isn't available, but don't have the artistic ability to draw it from scratch. Stitch Witch can fill in the gap!Here's an example. This set of clothing is reminiscent of a set of clothing I bought years ago for Michael 2.(I bet some of you recognize what it's styled after!) I loved that set of clothing, but seriously needed to be able to break apart the linen undergarment from the overgarment. However, the clothing came as a standard Poser texture, and was not able to do that.
They came out quite well, don't you think? I am not an artist, yet I was able to create the above 5 tunics plus one more, in 2 hours with Stitch Witch.
It does for texturing, what Wardrobe Wizard does for clothing, and PuppetMaster does for posing.It makes it fast and easy for non-artists to create high quality clothing textures. It has tools to automatically add shadows, rotate fabric, tile lace along a curve, add buttons, lacing, and more. It automatically creates the transparency map for you, so there's no need to work that up yourself afterwards. It has an incredibly easy to use and powerful color picker tool, that lets you match colors with ease. It comes with special tools to import OBJ and OBZ templates, create shadowed effects, and much more.
For more detailed information, check out the help file [url=http://www.kamilche.com/stitchwitch/help]here[/url]. The help file looks like the user interface, and clicking on the various controls takes you to help for that area of the program.
It requires a PC with Windows 2000, XP, or Vista. (If this is the wrong forum, please forgive me and point me to the right forum.)
I hope you find this software as useful as I do! Happy texturing,
--Kamilche, creator of Wardrobe Wizard and Puppet Master.
P.S. - Who can name the clothing that inspired this texture set?
