Artist-friendly Particle System Tools
Particle systems can be created and modified natively in many 3D modeling and rendering packages including Cinema 4D, Lightwave, Houdini, Maya, XSI, 3D Studio Max and Blender. These editing programs allow artists to have instant feedback on how a particle system will look with properties and constraints that they specify. There is also plug-in software available that provides enhanced particle effects.

Famous quotes containing the words particle, system and/or tools:
“Love is life. All, everything that I understand, I understand only because I love. Everything is, everything exists, only because I love. Everything is united by it alone. Love is God, and to die means that I, a particle of love, shall return to the general and eternal source.”
—Leo Tolstoy (1828–1910)
“The twentieth-century artist who uses symbols is alienated because the system of symbols is a private one. After you have dealt with the symbols you are still private, you are still lonely, because you are not sure anyone will understand it except yourself. The ransom of privacy is that you are alone.”
—Louise Bourgeois (b. 1911)
“Man is a tool-using animal.... Without tools he is nothing, with tools he is all.”
—Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
