    Most of the Substance Painter features included for free. Nice interface and Open Source. It's not officially released yet so ther binaries are paid for (donation) until it's 1.0 release.

    BodyPaint 3D - For all Your 3D Painting Needs.

    Wouldn't it be great if you could have all your favorite image editing tools in a single 3D environment? Wouldn't it be great if they worked in conjunction with your 3D application rather than against it? Well, that is exact.
