Leading computer graphics and visual effects software developer, The Foundry is pleased to announce that Mari will be coming to the Mac later this year.
Mari is the most fluid and natural way to paint in 3D. It makes life simple for artists by allowing them to paint directly onto 3D models and is capable of handling super high-resolution textures and millions of polygons.
In March 2013, The Foundry launched Mari 2, a revolutionary version of the software, featuring a brand new, artist-focused layer system. Staying true to Mari’s roots this major release focused on enhancing the painting experience for 3D artists. The addition of the new layer system means
Mari is easier to use than ever before and will be a familiar working environment for users of Adobe Photoshop and other layer based paint tools.
"The Foundry has done an incredible job bringing Mari to the Mac," said Ron Okamoto, Apple’s vice president of Worldwide Developer Relations. “Mari’s high-resolution textures and 3D painting capabilities take full advantage of the incredible power and stability of the Mac.”
“Bringing Mari to the Mac is without a doubt our most requested innovation,” said Bill Collis, The Foundry’s CEO. “Mari I will take full advantage of Apple's current hardware and we can't wait for the next generation Mac Pro.”
