The core of BPainter is its powerful, non-destructive layer system. Artists can add, rearrange, merge, and delete paint layers, just like in 2D applications like Photoshop. This layer-based workflow is a game-changer, offering flexibility to edit or remove strokes at any time and experiment freely without fear of permanently damaging the base texture.

Temporarily sets the viewport shading to a flat, unlit model when selecting colors.

: BPainter can automatically generate UV textures and set up the necessary background nodes for Cycles or Eevee, saving you from complex manual node-tree management.
