- Product Maturity / End-Users / ModelerScaling ModelI don’t like the interface it is bit complicated. It found difficulty in scaling model, resolutions. Show More
- Product Maturity / Number of Supported Platforms/OS / Mac OS...Compatibility3D Coat compatibility with Mac is troublesome. While modelling it gets crashed and I have to start the modelling right from the beginning. I wish there will be some auto saving feature in-built in the software. Show More

“Realtime"
May 30, 2019
I am really impressed with the feature where almost all voxel shaders are PBR compatible. All the shaders have amazing parameters which includes different textures. The software has very good support of cavity and bulge is present in realtime.

“Voxel sculpting"
May 30, 2019
I found that once you get familiar with voxel sculpting you will enjoy a lot using it. You''ll have to double the resolution of the model if you want fine detail, but that''s easily done with a click of a button. The variety of mirror tools, smoothing, pinching, et. al., enables you to create smooth even sculpts or to make hard lines if you are sculpting something like a gun or a machine.

“Presets and examples"
May 30, 2019
Another great thing I like about the interface is that you have lots of presets and examples you can use to start a modeling or texturing project. Plus, you can combine these presets in ways that get you to the desired result very quickly. The new PBR (physically based rendering) viewport makes it so easy to work with your models and see the results in real time.

“Installation and set up"
May 30, 2019
I love the installation and set up for 3-D coat. It is so simple and easy. After you install the interface has many shelves and icons but thanks to its user guide which makes the software so pleasant to use.
