PRESS KIT

MechaPaint press kit

Trailer, key art, screenshots, logos, and the facts, all of it open. Nothing here needs a login or a request.

Usage. Every asset on this page is free to use in articles, videos, reviews, and roundups about MechaPaint, in print or online, with no permission needed and no fee. Credit "MechaPaint" where it is practical. Crop and resize freely.

Do not alter the logo's colors or proportions, or use MechaPaint art to imply I endorse an unrelated product.

Need something that is not here? A specific shot, a higher resolution, a model painted on request, a build for review, or an interview: email [email protected] and you will hear back the same day.

Download the whole kit, one zip Fact sheet, plain text Logos, key art, every screenshot below at full resolution, and the fact sheet. The video streams from the section below.

Video

The two minute walkthrough is the trailer: load a model, pick a brush, paint it, get a texture back out. It opens on the app already running, so every second of it is the real thing.

MechaPaint painting a 3D diorama, cloning detail from a pinned photograph of a waterfall onto the mesh

Cloning from a photograph

A photo of a waterfall is pinned over the viewport and cloned straight onto the model's surface. The clone source preview sits bottom left.

MechaPaint with two photographic references floating over the 3D viewport while a diorama is painted

References over the viewport

Reference images float above the 3D view, drag and resize freely, and can be eyedropped for color without leaving the model.

A 3D bison being painted in MechaPaint from two photographs of a real bison pinned beside it

Photo to model

A bison textured from ordinary photographs, projected onto the mesh rather than hand-matched in a 2D editor.

An underwater creature model in MechaPaint being painted from a wall of pinned sea-life photographs

Working from a reference wall

A stack of reference photos, a partly painted creature, and the reference tray along the right edge.

MechaPaint ghost tools making part of a diorama transparent so a brush stroke cannot reach the geometry behind it

Ghosting

Lasso away the geometry that is in your way so a stroke never bleeds onto the far side of the model.

A toy pony model painted in rainbow colors in MechaPaint, with reference images pinned over the viewport

Depth paint

Depth locking keeps a stroke on the surface you started on, so a near ridge and the valley behind it stay separate.

A snowy battle-map terrain generated as 3D geometry in MechaPaint from a flat image

PhotoMesh

A flat image turned into real relief geometry and painted in place, lighting driven live from the top bar.

MechaPaint running beside LightWave 3D Modeler, with the same model open in both and its surface list intact

Native file support

A LightWave .lwo opened directly, surfaces and layers intact, beside the application that made it. Same story for FBX, OBJ, Collada, USD and the rest.

Written to be pasted as-is. Take the length that fits.

One line. MechaPaint is a standalone 3D painting app for Windows and macOS that opens the models you already have, lets you paint on them in 3D, and hands the textures back without touching your originals.

One paragraph. MechaPaint is a standalone 3D painting application for Windows and macOS. It opens FBX, OBJ, LWO, Collada and USD files directly, paints on the mesh in 3D with brushes, photographic references, projection and cloning, repairs or rebuilds broken UVs when a model arrives without usable ones, and exports clean PNG textures per layer or per submesh. It runs on its own, with no host application or engine needed. It is a one-time purchase with a perpetual license, and the free download is the complete application with watermarked exports.
