Highlights
  • Sculpting tools (clay, flatten, smooth, trim)
  • Vertex painting (color, roughness, metalness)
  • Layer system for sculpting and painting
  • Multiresolution and voxel remeshing
  • Automatic UV unwrapping
  • PBR rendering with post-processing effects
  • Export/import in glTF, OBJ, STL, PLY

• Sculpting tools Clay, flatten, smooth, mask and many other brushes will let you shape your creation. You can also use the trim boolean cutting tool with lasso, rectangle and other shapes, for hardsurface purposes. • Stroke customization Falloff, alphas, tilings, pencil pressure and other stroke parameters can be customized. You can save and load your tools preset as well. • Painting tools Vertex painting with color, roughness and metalness. You can easily manage all your material presets as well. • Layers Record your sculpting and painting operations in separate layers for easier iteration during the creation process. Both the sculpting and painting changes are recorded. • Multiresolution sculpting Go back and forth between multiple resolution of your mesh for a flexible workflow. • Voxel remeshing Remesh quickly your mesh to get a uniform level of detail. It can be used to quickly sketch a rough shape at the beginning of the creation process. • Dynamic topology Refine locally your mesh under your brush to get an automatic level of detail. You can even keep your layers, as they will be automatically updated! • Decimate Reduce the number of polygons by keeping as many details as possible. • Face Group Segment your mesh into subgroups with the face group tool. • Automatic UV unwrap The automatic UV unwrapper can use face groups to control the unwrapping process. • Baking You can transfer vertex data such as color, roughness, metalness and small scaled detail in to textures. You can also do the opposite, transfering textures data into vertex data or layers. • Primitive shape Cylinder, torus, tube, lathe and other primitives can be used to quickly start new shapes from scratch. • PBR rendering Beautiful PBR rendering by default, with lighting and shadows. You can always switch to matcap for a more standard shading for sculpting purposes. • Post processing Screen Space Reflection, Depth of Field, Ambient Occlusion, Tone mapping, etc • Export and Import Supported formats include glTF, OBJ, STL or PLY files. • Interface Easy-to-use interface, designed for mobile experience. Customization is possible as well! • Quad Remesher (separate in-app purchase only) Remesh your object automatically with a quad dominant mesh that follows the mesh curvatures. It supports guides, face groups and density painting.

About

SegModelPro

This tool allows users to import and manipulate 3D models, automatically segmenting them into distinct parts. You can color-code, adjust transparency, and interactively move, rotate, or combine these segments for detailed inspection and visualization.

Highlights
  • Import STL and USDZ 3D models
  • Automatic component separation
  • Assign distinct colors to segments
  • Adjust segment visibility and transparency
  • Interactive model manipulation (move, rotate, split, combine)
  • Switch between original and segmented views

Read full description

SegModel Pro is a 3D model segmentation and manipulation tool designed for working with STL and USDZ files. It allows users to import 3D mesh models, automatically separate disconnected components, assign distinct colors to segmented parts, and adjust visibility or transparency for easier inspection. The app supports interactive model control, including moving, rotating, mirroring, splitting, combining, and resetting models or individual parts. Users can switch between original and segmented model views, manage separate STL and USDZ imports, and use intuitive spatial or touch-based controls depending on the platform. SegModel Pro is suitable for visualizing, organizing, and exploring complex 3D models in an interactive environment. It is intended for model review, demonstration, design reference, and educational 3D visualization workflows.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Nomad Sculpt at $19.99 against SegModelPro's $29.99. Nomad Sculpt also leads on chart position (#5 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.6). SegModelPro's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 9 days). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
