What is Monster Mash?
Monster Mash is an innovative tool designed for casual 3D modeling and animation, all from a single-view perspective. It enables users to swiftly sketch a character, transform it into a 3D model, and animate it with simple controls. All interactions, from drawing to animating, can be performed in the sketching plane, removing the need for complex 3D manipulations.
The process involves distinct modes: Draw, Inflate, and Animate, along with a convenient Redraw feature for editing. The system supports image templates for texturing, and the animation can be recorded by manipulating control pins. Users may export the completed animation to the glTF format, facilitating integration with other 3D modeling tools, and an active user forum is provided for questions and discussion.
