#Blacksmith3d pro version 7 zonegfx full version
3D Coat is on my list of applications to get, Just an FYI, Blacksmith Pro does usually go on sale a couple of times a year in the $120-$150 range, and 3D Coat always goes on sale between Xmas and New Years, with the full version being about $100 off, and the non-commercial about $79.Įdit: I think the biggest advantage of Blacksmith would be simplicity and ease of use for what it is designed to do compared to 3d Coat and zBrush, which do more, but also have a greater learning curve.Įver since I read that Blacksmith3D can port older texture maps to newer figures, I've been wanting to grab it when it goes on sale next. Keep in mind though, that the non-commercial version of 3d Coat does limit texture sizes to 2048x2048 IIRC. Compared to the other options mentioned, I think I would be the best inexpensive option for human figure texture creation, though 3dCoat would certainly work for this as well. It's also great for fixing seam problems. Using a photo to paint onto a 3d model) and use. It doesn't offer procedurals, but projection painting is quite easy to set up (i.e. I have Blacksmith 3d Pro and find it quite useful (not sure what the differences are between standard and pro). Seems a workable solution for the hobbyist without loads of money, and capable of doing cool stuff. So, Hexagon + Carrara cost me about $80, and if I go with the other two apps that's $20 a month or so, vs.
It's morph tools look like a great way to refine and polish the rough results I usually get out of Carrara. Which is where Blacksmith 3d comes in, with great 'paint across seams' elements, apparently. (though, again, I have Hexagon and Carrara) I REALLY like SP's system for generating textures, even better than some of the stuff I've seen elsewhere.īut Surface Painter is strangely incapable of managing seams, and it's not really a modeling app.
I've been looking at Surface Painter, which has a nice 'pay $10/month until you put in enough money to buy it outright' pay system. I've been debating options to extend my tools, and there's this 'a bunch of hundred dollar' barrier I keep bouncing off of (for 3d Coat or Zbrush or whatever).
