Product Overview
Blacksmith3D - Morph 2.2, using the analogy of a blacksmith, allows you
to "heat up" and "deform" objects in a very intuitive way.
The hotter portions of the object deform the most and the cooler parts deform
the least. In this way, you can easily create smooth and continuous morphs,
with little effort.
Price is only $99.95 US
Blacksmith3D - Paint 2.2 is a powerful, true 3D paint program. This
means that you can simply rotate and position your object, select a paint
brush and paint directly on the surface! You can also paint the color,
transparency, bump and displacement maps.
Price is only $99.95 US
Blacksmith3D - Morph 2.2 - Lite gives you most of the functionality
of Blacksmith3D-Morph 2.0 but with a lighter price tag. Click

Price is only $69.95 US
Blacksmith3D - HeadForge 2.1 allows you to automatically generate
BILLIONS of different faces for your favorite characters. It deforms the
characters on the fly, rather than simply mixing pre-defined morphs.
HeadForge is also included in Blacksmith3D-Morph 2.1 and Blacksmith3D-Suite
2.1, where you can also setup your own custom characters for use in HeadForge.
Price is only $34.95 US
Blacksmith3D - Suite is an all in one solution
which includes all of the above products in a single program. You can paint on the
object at any time during the morphing process. This allows you to paint
texture maps that fit your morph target perfectly (prevent the
stretching effect that some morph targets have on the texture).
Price is only $149.95 US
