- 3-D coat is like zbrush+substance painter (though you might consider getting SP too). Unlike zbrush it runs on Linux which is great for #indiedev! And yes, there are some graphics tablets that have Linux drivers written for them. Guest • Feb 2017 • 2 agrees and 1 disagrees

Adobe Fuse CC

A 3D character pipeline built for game devs Rapidly create, rig, and animate game-ready characters all in one place.
- Adobe Fuse CC, while a very cool and streamlined program, is more like a character creator in a Bethesda or Sim game. You can end up with some pretty cool results, but the sculpting is much more primitive than Zbrush. Guest • Dec 2017 • 4 agrees and 0 disagrees
