Designers use it for hard surface work such as products, vehicles, props and parts that later move to rendering, animation or 3D printing. Updated Aug 22, 2026.

Key Features

• Solid NURBS modeling with clean fillets and booleans
• Direct workflow shaped for artists and concept designers
• Reusable asset libraries for parts you use often
• Curvature analysis tools to check surface quality
• Imports and exports STEP, OBJ, STL and other CAD formats
• Bridge to Blender for rendering and animation work

Mac Utilities

Updated Aug 22, 2026

⬇ Download Now

Voxel Buddy Pro 1.0, made by SubPixel LLC and sold through aescripts, brings voxel rendering inside Adobe After Effects. Instead of faking blocky 3D with layers of shapes, it runs a GPU accelerated ray marching engine that draws voxels in real time, with no simulations to bake. It integrates with the After Effects 3D camera, so camera moves carry straight into the voxel scene, and it responds to scene lights like other 3D layers. It can use primitive shapes from the newer shape system while staying compatible with older versions. Updated Aug 22, 2026.

Key Features

• Real time GPU accelerated ray marching voxel engine

FAQs

Does it work with the After Effects camera?

Yes. It integrates with the 3D camera and lighting systems, so moves and lights affect voxels like 3D content.

Do I need to run simulations first?

No. The engine renders in real time with no simulations, keeping the workflow fast and interactive.

Where do I manage the license?

Voxel Buddy Pro is sold by SubPixel LLC through aescripts, where license and downloads live in your account.
