Deep Paint is a new Blender add-on created by visual artist Gaku Tada. This add-on provides a user-friendly set of tools that allow users to easily model and paint in 3D, enabling them to create hand-drawn 3D illustrations similar to those made by the artist himself.
Deep Paint is designed to expand the capabilities of Blender's Grease Pencil by adding features like "GP to Mesh," which instantly converts Grease Pencil strokes into 3D meshes, including brush strokes, curves, and mesh lines.
Other features include a custom Grease Pencil brush pop-up window, a modifier for quick organic modeling, options to set a default Deep Paint material and outlines, useful material presets, and more.
This add-on was released in three versions: Standard, Pro, and Studio. The Pro version includes several additional features. These include custom brushes for texture painting (such as Watercolor, Pastel, and Airbrush), utilities to populate assets like trees and flowers, a camera rig for creating camera paths, tools for creating stylized images, and additional render settings. The Studio version offers a similar feature set and is targeted at multiple users, granting a license for up to five seats.
Deep Paint features a "name your own price" licensing model with set base prices. The Standard version starts at $30 USD, the Pro version at $40 USD, and the Studio version at $150 USD.
Deep Paint is compatible with Blender version 3.6 and higher.
