3D-Coat development process

I am Andrew Shpagin, the developer of 3D-Coat. This is my personal blog devoted to the development of 3D-Coat. This blog is created to give fast and non-official information about 3D-Coat. I will post there daily news, what I am doing now, what features are under development this moment. It could be really interesting for everyone who is interested in 3D-Coat.

I have met really incredible interest. I am getting many letters and sales everyday. It seems that 3D-Coat is tooken seriously into account as serious competitor. It is great. Especially many peoples like retopology tool and upcoming volumetric sculpting. I have already made core for this but I need some time to bring it to some usability level.Anyway I will show very basic demo soon. From the example of developing retopology tool I see that open development is best way to make something really exciting. I need to spend several more days on making sevice updates and then I will run into 3.0 development with full power. Now I am spending only 20% of time for it.
