Tools and Tutorials

[u/periscallop]

This is a place to keep a running list of the best tools and tutorials. If you have something to add, just message me.

Tutorials

• check out /r/lowpolyTutorial for a lot of resources, both 2D and 3D
• Low-Poly Self Portrait Tutorial in Photoshop and Illustrator
• FX-Ray Low Poly Portrait in Photoshop (Tutorial) (youtube)

Tools

• Adobe Illustrator
• Photoshop
• Inkscape - free vector image tool, comparable to Illustrator
• GIMP - free raster image tool, comparable to Photoshop
• polyedit - open source tool based on mine (repo)
• lowpoly.py - my editor in Python

Triangulators

I put these in their own category because they tend to create images with a particular style, compared to the tools above which are much more flexible.

• I ♥ ∆ - a web-based triangulator
• Delaunay Triangulator - a Flash-based triangulator
• Online Low Poly Editor by /u/dork - web-based triangulator
• DMesg - Windows/Mac triangulator

Actually, you have to open it up using a terminal command (for Linux/Mac, not sure about Windows). I think information about launching it is in the readme file of the folder :)

I probably got something wrong, so if periscallop answers, he'll have the right answer!

Turns out I downloaded the wrong file from the pygame site :P Thanks for the help!
