Extrude creates new geometry. Push Face edits what is already there. It’s a basic difference, but knowing when to use each makes direct modeling much easier. Try Plasticity for free at plasticity.xyz

Sweep a profile to create unique edges and cuts in your geometry. Try Plasticity for free at plasticity.xyz

Plasticity is 3D modeling software (CAD) built to make modeling more precise, quick, intuitive, and most importantly, enjoyable. Wanna see the difference for yourself? Try Plasticity for free at: www.plasticity.xyz

Assets coming soon (available in BETA). Making reusable assets to add to your Plasticity asset tab is easy when you use Alternative Duplicate. Try Plasticity for free at plasticity.xyz

Loft vs Sweep vs Patch in Plasticity They might seem similar at first, but each tool solves a different modeling problem: Loft → transition between profiles Sweep → follow a path Patch → fill surfaces from boundaries

A small beta update that makes the viewport feel a little sharper. Our newest BETA introduces a refreshed viewport cube with clickable edges and corners, a new right click menu with commands like Home View, and new options to customize edge and instance edge colors.

Build it once. Keep it forever. Assets are now available in the latest beta. Mark items as assets, export them as asset packs, and reuse them across files. Drag, drop, place, reload. A faster way to build reusable parts, kits, and more.

Create models as accurately, quickly, and as detailed as you want all within Plasticity. Try Plasticity for free at plasticity.xyz

Sometimes simply filleting an edge doesn't give you the result you're looking for. As an alternative, use surfacing tools along with guides to create interesting surfaces transitions, fillets, chamfers, and much more. Try Plasticity for free at plasticity.xyz

The Knife tool lets you sketch directly onto a surface without imprinting first. Perfect for quickly adding cut lines, panel details, and surface divisions right where you need them. Try Plasticity for free at plasticity.xyz

It's time to start surfacing. Try Plasticity for free at plasticity.xyz

Use the sweep command to add unique profiles on your models. Try Plasticity for free at plasticity.xyz

Project Curve and Imprint Curve may look similar, but they are used differently. Imprint Curve takes that curve and makes it part of the body’s topology. Project Curve lets you place a curve onto a surface so it follows the form of the model.

Offsetting faces creates individual insets on each panel. Offsetting the surrounding edges creates one shared boundary, letting you inset multiple panels together for a cleaner, more controlled result.

One of the most basic, but useful tools in Plasticity: Fillet. Try Plasticity for free at plasticity.xyz

Plasticity will change the way you model.

Plasticity gives you the freedom to model without forcing a workflow. Push and pull surfaces, sketch loosely or dimension precisely, combine direct modeling with surfacing, and move through ideas without breaking momentum, or the bank. Try Plasticity for free at Plasticity.xyz

in case it wasn't clear, I'm quite impressed with @getplasticity.bsky.social

it was about 4 hours of work to get this whole back assembly done, but once again @getplasticity.bsky.social made it feel like a breeze.

Have you used the sweep command yet? Sweep custom profiles along curves to create pipes, trim, cables, rails, and complex surface forms while maintaining precise control over orientation and continuity.

Lofting is both fun and useful. Loft between curves, profiles, and edges to create smooth transitional surfaces with precise control over shape continuity and flow.

Transform commands now support Transform Instances Inversely. When enabled, transformations apply to the parent object while keeping its instances fixed in place. Useful for adjusting source geometry without disturbing existing instance layouts.

Extrude now supports direct edge extrusion on surfaces. A new mode toggle also lets you switch between Individual and Direction extrusion behavior. Extrude each face along its own normal, or drive all selected surfaces along a unified vector for more controlled results.

Since we initially released instances, they have been getting more useful and integrated into other tools. In this case, you can use the place tool and the key "i" to create and place instances of an object. Try Plasticity for free at plasticity.xyz

Instances are more powerful than ever. You can create instances with arrays, mirror commands, and more. Try Plasticity for free at plasticity.xyz
