Dilay | Zspheres Open Source Alternative (no AI)

#Dilay is an unfairly overlooked open-source project that was discontinued in 2018 (most likely without any 'assistance' from generative AI). Back then, its creator, Alexander Bau, managed to create a tiny tool with tools for sculpting dense meshes. Something that wasn't nearly as accessible or straightforward at the time as it is today with Blender, WebGL applications, etc. What's most interesting is that this underrated tool includes a feature that does a very good job of emulating a feature that, until then, only existed in ZBrush. I'm talking about Z-Spheres. Z-Spheres (or Sketches in Dilay) can be used to create a structure/skeletons for creatures and characters. You can then turn it into a base mesh or, in the case of illustrators, use it as a reference for 2D drawing. ========== My quick review: :-) No AI :-) The only open-source alternative to ZBrush's Z-Spheres :-) Small, lightweight, runs on older machines :-( Some bugs with the pen's extra buttons; pressure sensitivity works well :-( Camera movement is a little weird Creator's Link and Download: https://abau.org/dilay/index.html
