Adobe Substance 3D Painter 8.3.0 for Mac
Mac Photo & DesignAdobe Substance 3D Painter 8.3.0 for Mac is the industry-standard app for texturing 3D models. You paint directly onto the model in a real-time viewport, layering materials, effects and detail much like painting in Photoshop, while Painter handles UVs, baking and physically based rendering behind the scenes.
It is aimed at game artists, film and VFX teams, and product designers who need believable surfaces, from worn metal and leather to skin and fabric. Painter is available through Adobe's Substance 3D Texturing and Collection plans with a 30-day free trial. It is subscription software, not a one-time purchase, and there is no free full version.

- Paint textures in real time directly onto 3D models with full PBR workflow
- Smart materials and smart masks that adapt wear and detail to your geometry
- Integrated bakers for normal, ambient occlusion, curvature and other mesh maps
