Surface Painter

Developer: polyspaace

Download Free

Blender add-on for painting pre-built colored basic materials onto faces, areas or whole objects.

What Surface Painter does

Surface Painter lets you dress objects in Blender with ready-made materials instead of building each one by hand. Choose from 27 procedural surfaces, such as car paint, varnish, wall plaster and metal, and 75 palette colors, then paint with Ctrl+LMB.

Painting can target a single face, an area bounded by sharp edges or the whole object, in Object or Edit mode. Materials can be tweaked from the panel without opening the shader editor, favorite colors are saved to the scene or globally, and you can create and store your own surfaces. It suits beginners.

Key features

  • 27 procedural surface types as node groups
  • 75-color palette plus custom colors
  • Paint a face, an edge-bound area or an object
  • Tweak materials without the shader editor
  • Save your own surfaces
