A good start

It needs brush presets like Procreate. It needs better viewport control. Like when you click FRONT dont zoom the whole model. I would say mimic Blenders control gizmo. Still worth $20 IMO for on the go painting.

Keeps crashing

When you import a model it just crashes, the same model loads perfectly in Procreate and Nomad. M4 iPad Pro.

how do you PAINT ON THE MODEL?

try to make a stroke, nothing,
i mess with stuff and make a stroke, nothing

Good App, Some Backseat Suggestions

Recent update fixed the import crashing issues on 9th gen ipad. Some things that would make it perfect:

- Color: Using reference images for color isn’t a convenient workflow, and that method uses up the window which should be used for something else. GPL format import/export support. A floatable palette dock with a collapsible/resizable window and color icons would be ideal. An addable palette panel under the Tool and Layer Inspector so colors can be quickly accessed when Layer is a fixed window. Ability to add currently selected colors quickly to active palette. Maybe even extract colors from model/object/uv map and add them to a palette.

- Custom Brush and Erase Tools: Clone/save all attributes of a modified brush/eraser (Settings, Paint, Alpha, Stencil, Influence) in a Wafer format, give them names, custom icons (or draw a stroke to define a icon), and save them directly into the asset browser/or a dedicated sub folder. Maybe the ability to add Presets to the Toolbar so they can be accessed quickly when the Tool Inspector is collapsed? Tap the icon in the vertical toolbar and a collapsible submenu could pop up featuring selected presets of that tool type? Easy way to keep workspace minimal on smaller screens and have access to different brushstrokes between projects, without having to manually edit brushes each session.

- Tool Library: Panel to the left of the Preset brush panel in Tool Overview. Links/references the brushes saved or manually imported into the asset browser. Each individual brush/eraser preset can be referenced by multiple libraries, letting users build custom preset groups for their own workflows. Selecting a library changes the available brushes/presets in the Presets panel. Let us set a default library (or it can default to the current preset brush settings)

- Toolbar Edits: The ability to rearrange and resize the toolbar items to fit more on small screens. I use the select tool a lot and being able to move it towards the top of the vertical toolbar would be ideal.

* Window Resizing/Cropping: Currently can’t resize windows which makes things like reference images awkward and take too much screen space on smaller devices. Using references as a background image layer.

Crashes

I really wanted this to work but nothing I do makes it load. I have a 2020 ish I pad pro and it crashes anytime I import any model, even if it’s 200 tris

Response from developer

Fixed in 1.3.4
