Main Profile Commands Step Commands Point Commands Demo Videos User Accolades Gallery

Modeling using beveling techniques has never been easier or more powerful. The original multi-step multi-polygon beveling tool for LightWave 3D, it has been often imitated, but never duplicated. This latest version of VertiBevel re-establishes itself as the beveling tool of choice for professional modelers, with features and speed not found in any other beveling tool at any price. To make things even better, we've dropped the cost of VertiBevel to a great new price of only $99.95.

Description

Powerful modeling tool for the LightWave professional. This tool does what you've always wanted Lightwave's bevel tool to do and more... It will truly change the way you model.

Comments

"VB 2.0's new point rounding and bezier curves are a dream come true for arch-viz work, engineering pre-vis, or anything that requires a high degree of profile accuracy. Plus, it's easy and fun to use!" --Charles Woods, Lead Designer, The Graphic Arts Center, Inc.
