It enables you to move vertices across the mesh without distorting the UV's. Coupled with skin utilities, artists can go back and forth through modeling, texturing and rigging pipelines without re-doing any work. The vertex painting tools has dramatically improved in 3ds Max 7. These tools can do everything, featuring layers, blur brush, customizable palettes and an improved "Adjust Color" which include hue, contrast, saturation, value and even levels..............................................Read Full Review !!!!
