N Sided QUIDAM

Details

QUIDAM is a new tool entirely dedicated to making one of the hardest tasks in 3D simple and understandable: the creation of original and realistic characters.
User friendly, fast, and professional results are the guiding principles behind the creation of QUIDAM.
The work environment is organized into six separate studios to promote creativity, breaking with the overly complex and steep learning curve of other modeling programs. In less than an hour you can master QUIDAM and create your own characters.
Whether you are a just graphic artist discovering 3D techniques or a professional mastering the latest, high-end software, QUIDAM is the perfect solution to quickly create optimized and original characters.
Ergonomics
Do you think that it is normal to spend several months learning a program?
Uncluttered interface, intuitive navigation... ergonomics is in the heart of QUIDAM’s philosophy. You will be able to come to grips with the software and create your first character in less than an hour. Forget about the technical constraints and boring panels of overly complex programs; everything has been done in QUIDAM to let you express your artistic talent.
Professional users will enjoy driving QUIDAM full screen with keyboard shortcuts.
Speed
The days of spending hours putting polygons together are over!
In a few minutes, make the character you have imagined. QUIDAM doesn’t offer basic fixed models, but dynamic bases, each including a multitude of anatomical parts, props, clothes, textures… to let you create billions of characters.
QUIDAM is powered by an advanced 3D real-time engine which makes the most of the OpenGL potential and last graphic cards, but also stays compatible with older configurations.
Customization
QUIDAM offers advanced sculpture and painting tools to customize your creations to the last detail. Its innovative tools invite you to give your personal touch to your creation. At last, it's you who creates your character and not the software!
As QUIDAM is compatible with all the 3D professional solutions, you can retouch or animate your characters in your favorite software.
Here are some key features of "N Sided QUIDAM":
