I have just released a free addon that is half python based and half OSL shader based, so I am positing in both forums!
I hope this is OK.
After 3 years in the making - I’m excited to announce the alpha release of the CutAway Shader - a free addon for Blender for artists, architects, scientists and engineers.
(YouTube demo video link:http://bit.ly/2gIdMVO )
If you’ve ever wanted to cut away a cross section of a model, perform an architectural reveal or carry out some tricky special effects then this is the tool for you!
It works for still images and for animations.
The CutAway Shader can be used for:
- Model cut aways.
- Architectural reveals.
- Scientific and engineering images.
- Filming through walls (without damaging or re-dressing the set).
- Special effects (e.g. turning a winter scene into a summer scene).
- Wire frame to solid model transitions.
- … plus much more!
For more information on downloading, and video tutorials checkout the following link:
Cheers
