ArtiMesh vs Meld

Build real 3D models on your iPhone or iPad, then take them straight into Blender, Unreal Engine, Unity or a 3D printer workflow. One-time purchase, no subscription. ArtiMesh is a box modeler built for touch. Use gestures to move, rotate and scale. Select vertices, edges and faces with a tap or a rectangle. Undo anything. No Apple Pencil required, but it's supported, along with keyboard shortcuts on iPad. MODELING • Extrude, bevel, subdivide, merge, detach and delete faces • Insert edge loops, extrude edges and bridge borders into new faces • Merge and connect vertices • Mirror, combine, separate and boolean objects • Smooth or flat shading SCULPTING • Raise, lower, grab, smooth and noise brushes • Adjustable radius and strength MATERIALS, PAINT & UVs • Metallic and smoothness materials with image textures • Paint textures directly on the model • Smart UV unwrap plus a full UV editor RENDERING • Real-time shadows, adjustable lighting and skyboxes • Bloom, ambient occlusion, depth of field, color grading and more • Save renders as PNG IMPORT & EXPORT • Import and export OBJ, with or without materials • Works with Blender, Unreal Engine, Unity, Maya and other 3D tools • Export low-poly game assets or high-poly models for 3D printing Made by an independent developer. Feature requests from reviews regularly make it into updates.

Meld is a polygon modeler and texture painter built for iPad and iPhone. Topology editing tools, rebuilt for use with touch and Apple Pencil. MODELING Extrude, Inset, Bevel, Loop Cut, Knife, Edge Slide and Subdivide. Extrude along the region, the normals or each face individually. Bevel edges or vertices with adjustable segments and profile shape. Cut loops with even spacing and slide them into place. Every tool opens a settings panel after you commit, so you can dial in an exact amount, add a segment, or change a profile without undoing and starting again. Move, rotate and scale with gizmos in global or local orientation, or transform freely with an axis constraint when you need one direction only. TOPOLOGY Split, separate, dissolve and delete across every selection mode. Fill and bridge edges. Merge vertices by distance or at their center. Flip normals, shade smooth or flat, join objects together. Full undo and redo on everything. PAINTING Paint color directly onto your model with Apple Pencil, using pen pressure. Roughness, metallic and emissive channels let a surface read as worn metal, wet plastic or a glowing sign. Unwrap UVs with smart unwrap. LIGHTING AND RENDERING Point, spot, directional and area lights. Place cameras, frame a shot at the aspect ratio you want, and capture it. Ray traced shadows and reflections on supported devices. Import reference images to model against. Fly through your scene or orbit it, in perspective or orthographic, with instant front, side and top views. FILES Import and export OBJ, glTF, GLB and USDZ. Export a single object or the whole scene. Exporting models requires Meld Pro. Scenes autosave as you work, and the file browser shows a real 3D preview of every one. Your files stay on your device, and export to formats every other tool already speaks.
