This release of MudKit (Version 1.2.0) introduces DynaCut.
Using features from DynaSkin and DynaBool, this tool cuts out portions of your selected mesh, based on a Mudbox view curve. Your creativity is the limit with this tool. Just draw and shape a Mudbox view curve to your liking, then cut. It’s that simple. As with the DynaBool tool, you can use DynaCut to quickly create incredibly complex geometry that would otherwise be difficult or time-consuming to sculpt.
DynaCut joins the other tools in the MudKit toolkit:
I am a 3D art and animation enthusiast who is interested in 3d animated short films. I am also an experienced programmer. I operate under my limited liability company: Iconic Motion Studios, LLC.
Among the 3D sculpting software on the market, I have always been partial to Autodesk Mudbox. I like the simplicity of its user interface, its comfortable workflow and its integration with Maya and 3ds Max. Mudbox, however, is missing some meaningful tools that many artists desire.
I developed MudKit to fill in some of the gaps that exist in Mudbox's current set of tools. As Autodesk incorporates some of the tools MudKit offers, I will adjust the toolkit accordingly. It is my sincere hope that Autodesk will do so. Until that happens...
Please Enjoy MudKit!

The steps to use DynaCut with a Mudbox view curve are as follows:
When creating your view curve, however, there are a couple of things to keep in mind:
EXAMPLE 1:
EXAMPLE 2:
I appreciate your patience. I should have provided some instruction sooner. I intend to pause my development on MudKit to focus my attention on creating a series of video tutorials for each of the its features.
Also, any feedback you may have is much appreciated.
