Autodesk Mudbox 2015 Now Available as $10 Monthly Desktop Subscription
As part of an ongoing commitment to equip indie game makers and artists with powerful, accessible 3D tools, Autodesk today announced that its Mudbox 2015 digital painting and 3D sculpting software is now available as a Desktop Subscription license for $10 USD a month.
Providing an intuitive, tactile method for creating and modifying 3D geometry and textures, Mudbox helps artists customize high-quality 3D models for use in mobile and indie games and other 3D projects. The Academy-Award winning tool preserves asset fidelity and maintains a high-level of detail to ensure nothing is lost from ideation to creation.
Integrating seamlessly into existing creative workflows, Mudbox 2015 helps accelerates development while reducing production costs, without sacrificing quality. For example, an artist can easily sculpt and texture 3D characters, creatures and objects in Mudbox, import them into Autodesk Maya LT 2015 (a 3D animation tool tailored for indie gamer makers) for additional customization, and then export the assets to Unity or other compatible game engines to complete the project.
