Ucupaint 2.4
Combining decals and displacement with height based blending to add detail with precision.
This can all be baked down into a material or even a 3D model.

Less destructive way to paint on a mesh with Ucupaint (Blender). You can change the colors after you're done with your painting, like in Substance Painter.
Usually, I will paint on an Image layer, but this time I tried to paint on a 'Solid Color with Image Mask' layer! #blender3d #ucupaint #b3d

Next for #AfterAdobe, Substance Painter.
I want to preface this one by stating that Substance Painter is a very powerful program. It has many useful features and it can be purchased version locked on Steam perpetually for a fair price. That being said, let's explore my replacement.

Another how to infographic series, this time it's how I painted the taiyaki! Also here's the way to use clipping mask like Procreate (Slide 2).
I made it in Blender 4.5 & Ucupaint.
