This step is usually unecessary but it’s a trick to save performance when you’ll go into the UV/Image Editor, as by default Blender is extremely sluggish in the UV/Image Editor if the high poyl model is not unwrapped. There with the whole model selected, press U then Project from View. Now unless you have a good computer and a graphic card that is very opengl friendly, viewport performance in edit mode willl be horrible with a high poly sculpt, the best method would be to retopo ( good video tutorial about it there ) to get a much lower poly model.Īnd it’s really recommended to retopo, because Blender Texture Paint mode with high poly model has horrible performance (unlike Sculptris Paint Mode that has much much better performance)īut if you just want to paint on your sculpt without going the retopo path, while being in Object Mode set Blender display to Wireframe mode, Wireframe mode will give you much better viewport performance. In Blender, delete every object you have (the ones you don’t want to keep as importing an obj will not delete what is already there) File -> Import -> Wavefront (.obj) and import your sculpt.

I’m not much experienced with the Texture Paint mode in Blender, but in case this can help you :Įxport your Sculptris piece in OBJ format
