Publisher's description of 3D Canvas

From Amabilis Software:

3D Canvas is a real-time, 3D modeling, and animation tool that incorporates a drag-and-drop approach. Complex models can be constructed from simple 3D primitives or created using 3D Canvas's object-building tools. Creating an animated scene is as simple as positioning the objects within your scene for each point in time in your animation. 3D Canvas will ensure the resulting animation runs smoothly.

Version 7.1.1.2 includes unspecified updates.

Editor's review of 3D Canvas

• 5.0 stars

• "3D Canvas"

• Reviewed by: CNET Staff
• Version reviewed: 3D Canvas 7.1.1.2

This real-time, 3D-modeling and -animation tool offers everything you need to create complex models using either premade 3D primitives or object-building tools. The tutorials and example drawings make this program an excellent introduction to 3D modeling and animation. Although the complex array of features is what sets 3D Canvas apart, it may take some time to learn the tools' functionality when everything is new to you.

Luckily, the tutorials and help files are excellent. Starting a model is surprisingly easy. Simply drag one of the predefined primitives into the work space and begin by placing your object in a scene. You can paint 3D objects and animate their shapes and positions in real time, or record to an AVI video file for distributing your creation. The 3D Canvas interface is extremely intuitive, with objects and palettes conveniently accessible from clearly visible tabs and panels.

This freeware version of 3D Canvas is an excellent program with a multitude of varied features and plenty of things to play with.

  "turn uac on"

  by alice_b0wie on January 17, 2008

  Pros: on vista this program wants you turn the uac back on.

  Cons: i'm 100% sure i would rarely use this so instead of turning on the uac i uninstalled the program just for requesting me to reset my setting just for it.

  "I design a tool, take a print to the forge, and make it"

  by catforge1 on June 20, 2009

  Pros: The even the FREE version has full animation. 3DCanvas works using a drag and drop method. Whatever you make can be sent to your printer. The PRO ver. is $69.95 USDollars. For what this program can do, it is a great, great price!!!

  Cons: There are textures that can be downloaded, getting them to show in the dropdowns can be tricky. But, THAT is all that I find wrong with 3DC

  Summary: Being a Ornamental Blacksmith, I make my own tools. 3D Canvas allows me to design whatever I need, easily. I've used the program for 9yrs. It works with WIN. 98SE, ME, XP, XP2, XP3 AND VISTA ( note: These operating sytems I have personally used with... read more >>

  Version: 3D Canvas 7.1.1.2

  "At first glance, a useful addition to my 3D 'workouts'."

  by RolfC on December 10, 2008

  Pros: I have had very little chance to use it for the moment though, I should wish to purchase the upgrades or the full product. Working with Lightwave and Bryce in order to bring my showreel to completion.

  Cons: Once I purchase the Pro version thus enableing me to export objects, I cannot foresee any problems. The product is well priced and good value for money.

  Summary: I'd wish to be brief. It's a great tool for beginners or those starting out getting their
  head around working in 3D.
