## What is 3D Sculpting Assistant?

3D Sculpting Assistant is a mobile digital sculpting app positioned as a companion tool, extending your creative process to phones and tablets while seamlessly connecting with your desktop workflow.

Create Anytime, Anywhere
On a business trip, during your commute, or late at night when inspiration strikes – open the app and keep sculpting. Start from primitive shapes like spheres and cubes, use 26 brushes to block out forms, sketch, and check proportions, then import the OBJ back on your computer to dive deeper. Mobile is no longer a break in your workflow – it's an extension.

26 Brushes for Rough Sketching
Includes Clay, Clay Buildup, Smooth, Grab, Crease, Snake Hook, Pinch, Polish, Chisel, Rake, Twist, and more – covering four scenario categories: basic blocking, organic sculpting, surface finishing, and tool assistance. Each brush supports Add, Subtract, and Smooth modes, with five falloff curves, ideal for quickly validating shape directions.

Dynamic Topology & Multiple Layers
Dynamic topology automatically subdivides the mesh along your brush strokes – denser where details are needed. Multiple layers support blending modes like Normal, Overlay, and Subtract, allowing you to manage major volumes, facial features, and accessories separately, ready for split processing back on desktop.

AR Live Preview for Scale Verification
Project your model onto a real desk or floor, then use pinch-to-zoom, two-finger rotation, and real-scale mode to evaluate actual proportions and display effects. When designing figurines, art toys, or 3D prints, check the size in real space beforehand to reduce rework.

Symmetry & Steady Stroke
Supports X, Y, Z axial symmetry and radial symmetry. Under topology symmetry mode, you can sculpt mirror-wise even if the mesh isn't perfectly symmetrical. The Steady Stroke feature smooths out hand jitter for cleaner lines – even on a touchscreen.

Templates & Reference Images for Quick Start
Built-in base meshes include human head, human body, quadruped, bird, as well as local parts like hand, foot, ear, nose, eye, and mouth. Floating reference images from front, side, and top views let you trace forms without constantly switching software.

Recording & Time-lapse for Review
Screen recording captures your entire process – great for tutorials and workflow review. Time‑lapse compresses hours of sculpting into a short video, perfect for sharing your creative journey or syncing progress with your team.

Import/Export Connects to Desktop Pipeline
Supports import of OBJ, STL, PLY, glTF, USDZ and export of OBJ, STL, PLY. Modify on your phone, export, AirDrop to your computer, and keep going – your workflow stays uninterrupted.

Measurement & Material Aids for Judgment
Measurement tools provide distance, angle, volume, and custom annotations for dimension checking. Render modes include PBR, MatCap, Wireframe, Normal, etc., paired with material libraries like Clay, Bronze, Marble, Gold, Glass, Skin, so you can preview different material effects before heading back to desktop for fine-tuning.

Ideal Support Scenarios

Desktop creators – sketch on mobile, refine on computer – inspiration never stalls.

Character & concept designers – quickly produce 3D thumbnails to validate proportions and directions.

3D printing enthusiasts – preview actual size with AR, export STL and slice directly for printing.

Game & animation professionals – modify on phone, export OBJ into engine pipelines.

Art & design students – understand mesh and topology at low cost; complement classroom exercises.

Art toy & figurine designers – verify scale with AR to reduce prototyping rework.

3D Sculpting Assistant isn't a replacement for desktop software – it's your go-to companion in the creative process. Open it, and turn every spare moment into progress on your work.
