perhaps a dumb noob question…

is it possible to “paint” on a 3d object?

I know you can texture it, or make a poly a given color

but is it possible to paint directly onto a 3d object, like in a regular paint program?

thanks

You could create the effect as if it was a paint program painting on an object, using render to texture.

Yep, but it’s probably not worth the time it would take to code it. :wink:
