Bumarin For Sculptor - Blender 4.1 (addon with infinite update)

31 ratings

What is Bumarin?

Bumarin is an environment in which the user draws 3D mesh thanks to the grease pencil. The initial idea is based on the approach of traditional sculpture that from a set of clay pieces generates a unified sculpture. Bumarin thus proposes 7 pencils allowing to generate 3D pieces of clay, each pencil having its own specificity.

Why Bumarin For Sculptor?

What you draw is what you sculpt (WYDIWYS).

Behind each grease pencil stroke there is an hidden 3D mesh and it only depends on you to reveal it with your creativity ... It's a totally new way of sculpting and concept sketching!

What is it made for?

Bumarin is useful for:

Sculpting, anatomy, organic /fractal modeling
Prototyping and concept sketching

Block in shapes pencil

Build your sculpture step by step by drawing each piece of clay and stacking them on top of each other

Instant brushes creation

With a fonctionality called Sonic Bum, Bumarin allows you to create your own 3D brushes instantly.

Manage chaos with simplicity

The Tubepencil use is a way to construct a tube topology in order to manage and apply brush above the surface of your model. Sculpting fur, grass, scale or feathering is so easy now!

Easy anatomy modeling with the fiber generator

Muscle fiber generation becomes child's play with the new fiber feature which turn a simple tube into a bundle of muscle.

Features

7 pencils: Claypencil, Tubepencil, Revpencil, Dynaclay, Dynatube, Sonic Bum and Leeloo
Parametric clays (adjust manually or through parameters your clays)
Instant brushes creation with the Sonic Bum brush manager or with Geometry nodes
Sonic clay and Sonic Draw (extend your clay or your draw into multiple instances)
Better shape control (each clay is a shape you can edit easily as if it was a Mask)
Smart remeshing (live voxel and decimate tool, decimate by island, Quadriflow)
Generate high detailed geometry models in few seconds
Fractal / pattern recognition oriented modeling
Manage a splitted model / unified sculpt (Clay mode / Baked mode)Create and share your own brushes
