Description: Inspired by real sculpting, Argil is an intuitive VR space that enables quick and effective creation of organic 3D objects, in a peaceful and meditative environment. It offers various easy-to-use tools that feel like manipulating real clay in your own hands. Create seamlessly and quickly anything you want, be it your avatar, a model for 3D printing, a garment, or accessories.

Review: ‘Argil’ is a pretty basic 3D creation tool that allows you to make your own 3D models, of which you can then import into Unity to animate if you wish. For character creations, this tool does have some good potential and I am happy to report that it is pretty easy to use. Sadly compared to many others it is a little basic and there are cheaper programs out there that do much the same things. But I am no expert on 3D creation and art, all I can really comment on is how easy it was to use and what the UI is like and both were quite satisfactory.
