Shade Review

Shade's intuitive, easy-to-use interface and 1,700+ included 3D objects such as furniture, building and transportation items speed up the design and modeling process to improve workflow. Modeling is aided by comprehensive mesh editing tools. Shade imports and exports popular CAD formats, and incorporates raytracing and radiosity to produce superior renderings of imported projects. Rendering times can be dramatically reduced via distributed rendering over many machines at once.

Product Design and Visualization. Development of award-wining product design is made easy using Shade. Boolean or Bezier modeling and mesh editing creates the exact shapes, with animation to preview functioning products "in motion"!
Character Modeling and Rendering With Poser. Link directly to Poser to easily import/export figures and poses. Poser users can use Shade to modify models, create props or render images with unlimited size.
Architectural and Interior Design. Architects and interior designers can build and render projects with stunning speed and realism. Additional content is also available from the huge library of architectural objects online and from popular CAD programs.
