Unrivaled 3D Painting

MAXON BodyPaint 3D will revolutionize the way you texture your 3D models. Regardless of how you've textured before, 3D texturing has never been easier. BodyPaint 3D makes painting by vectors as easy as painting by numbers.

Forget flat compromises and paint in three dimensions.

The 3ds max Connection
Looking for the ultimate solution to paint on your max-models? BodyPaint 3D Release 3 has hundreds of features to give your objects the perfect outfit. The RayBrushTM-mode is, in a way, its own outfit. You can paint in 3D in a rendered image - but with more than just a simple color. In combination with the MultiBrush you can paint in up to ten texture channels with just one brushstroke and see the results simultaneously.

BodyPaint 3D's Projection Painting tool makes distortion-free painting a snap. This quick and easy tool lets you paint across UV seams or even multiple objects in a scene.

Two plugins, one for 3ds max and one for BodyPaint 3D, offer a perfect connection between the two applications. Create your model in 3ds max and apply a material. You can set up UVs in 3ds max as well or use BodyPaint 3D's sophisticated tools to create UVs as perfect as the model you´ve built. BodyPaint 3D’s Setup Wizard now creates all the necessary texture maps for you and, if desired, will automatically generate UVs with just three mouse clicks. This also works for multiple objects, groups or even hierarchies just the same. Now you're all set to start the paint job.

The complete layering system, tons of painting tools and filters and a fully featured rendering engine to see all your efforts in realtime makes texturing with BodyPaint 3D a pure pleasure.
