TEXTURE

Real-Time 3D Painting in Toolbag

Leverage intuitive texturing tools to author and paint physically accurate materials using a non-destructive layer-based workflow. Toolbag’s Texture Projects delivers easy-to-use painting tools, UDIM support, and an extensive collection of features that keep your asset creation workflow fun and fast.

Infinite Layering & Masking

Discover a world of infinite possibilities with Toolbag’s unrestricted layering hierarchy.

Drag and drop materials from the Library to block out your Texture Project, and stack and mask any layer type to paint complex materials in a completely non-destructible workflow. Keep your work organized by grouping, converting, and rasterizing your layers.

Paint in 3D

Handpaint weathering effects with the Texture Project’s robust brush engine. Paint with the Library’s brush presets, or build your own from scratch.

Draw mirrored elements in symmetry mode and drag gradients onto your model with the gradient tool. Fill large areas with the flood fill tool and copy layer details to paint using the clone stamp tool.

Texture Across Tiles

Unlock high-resolution, multi-texture material creation with tile support. Effortlessly manage UDIMs and Multiple Texture Sets from a single Texture Project. Paint, mask, and build smart materials that apply seamlessly over tile borders.

Easy Weathering Effects

Quickly generate realistic weathering effects using input maps and procedural layers. Missing a map? No problem—save time with auto-generated input maps and stay focused on creating stunning textures.

Texture faster with Toolbag’s extensive library of free Smart Materials that adapt to your mesh. Simply drop them into your layer stack to quickly texture assets. Create, save, and share your content in the Library for quick re-use and swift team collaboration.

Vector Layers

Use Vector layers to easily construct mechanical detailing, such as seams and panel lines, or draw stitching for your character’s garments.

Draw solid shapes, brush strokes, or tubes on your model non-destructively. Customize their appearance with different profiles, and use boolean operations to combine, subtract, or add shapes to create intricate designs on your model.

Less Modeling, More Texturing

Shift your detailing work to the 3D painting stage with flexible texturing methods exclusive to Toolbag.

Use Carve Groups to blend layers using a single height-style gradient, and adjust transitions between each layer to create weathering effects while maintaining a simplified layer stack.
Sync Points unlock a revolutionary new workflow, allowing you to add geometric elements that influence other layers in your Texture Project. This saves countless hours by painting in Toolbag, rather than returning to the modeling phase.

These features guarantee a streamlined asset review process, and allow you to quickly iterate according to art direction.

“I love the flexibility of Toolbag. I can add meshes, remove them, and change them on the fly easily, which helps the texturing process a lot when you are iterating on different designs. Oh, and masking a mask is one of the most powerful tools ever!”
