Panel Cutter
Panel Cutter is a part of a series of small independent add-ons designed for those who want their external plugins efficient and lightweight. What it does is very simple and that is to create “panel cut” details from edges that are marked sharp inside Blender’s edit mode. This makes it easier to turn even the simplest geometry into a detailed scifi model.

The operator button can be foundquite easily using the W specials menu in both object and edit mode.
The redo panel or operator menuitself is quite simple and only has the functions necessary for youto create different effects and workflows.

The model above is a mixture ofmanually and randomly generated panel details. The same result can bedone using Random Flow with certain effects specific to Panel Cutterlike not needing the clipping feature for mirrored objects orelevating the panel cut islands to random heights.
