Wave goodbye to UV seams, inaccurate texturing and the constant back-and-forth switch to your 2D image editor. Say hello to hassle-free texturing that lets you quickly paint highly detailed textures directly on your 3D objects.

Forget flat compromises and paint in three dimensions. BodyPaint 3D offers the ultimate control over your textures with complete layers, filters and tablet support - all optimized for working in 3D. With BodyPaint 3D you can paint on up to ten channels with a single stroke, so a single brush can define an entire material rather than a single color. Plus, BodyPaint 3D's exclusive RayBrush™ technology lets you view the results of your painting realtime in a rendered image.

While CINEMA 4D users enjoy the application as a completely integrated module, BodyPaint 3D was created for all 3D artists and includes free plugins to exchange models and textures with popular 3D applications.
