FW: Application Request: Pixologic ZBrush 4

[Melander, Kurt A CTR USAF AFCESA AFCESA/CEOM]

Hello DADLWG members,
Just letting folks know who might be working with, for or supporting the USAF
that the Pixologic ZBrush 4 3D modeling application (pretty amazing creative
tool actually) has finally been approved for AF use and will be added to the
Air Force's AF E/APL (Evaluated/Approved Product Listing). I hope that sharing
this memo with other DoD developers/3D artists who might be supporting other
branches can use this in support of get it certified/approved for use by their
respective services. This application is extensively used in the game industry
for creating very detailed and realistic characters and both organic and hard
surface 3D assets. It has quite a learning curve but a very active artist
community forum on its website as well as some breathtaking examples of some
of the amazing artists there are out there in the gaming and entertainment
industries. Personal observations, that doesn't constitute endorsement by the
DADLWG or ADL Initiative/Joint ADL co-lab.

Cheers All,
