Paint in 3D and 2D
Paint on the model or on its UV layout. Both views update together.
PBR texture painting for pixel art
Pixel Painter
Paint pixel-art textures straight onto your 3D models.
Every texture is full PBR: colour, metal, roughness, normal and height. Start from a material you can keep tweaking, then paint the details by hand.
Features
Everything a low-res texture needs, in one window.
PBR channels
Colour, metallic, roughness, normal and height, painted together and exported as ready-to-use maps.
Procedural materials
A material is a recipe, not a picture. Its sliders stay editable after you drop it on.
UDIM-aware
One texture set per material on the mesh, with UDIM tiles handled for you.
Layers
Non-destructive layers with blend modes, opacity, masks and colour tags.
Python plugins
Add your own tools and menus. See the API reference.
