Explore the Creative Tools in Paint 3D
Discover the main tools available in Paint 3D and learn how each feature can help you draw, edit images, create 3D objects, add text, apply effects, and build creative projects.
Everything You Need to Start Creating
Paint 3D brings its main creative features together in a simple workspace. Explore the tools below and understand where each one fits into your design process.
Brushes and Drawing Tools
Use watercolor, oil brushes, markers, crayons, pencils, calligraphy tools, spray tools, and other drawing options to sketch and paint directly on your canvas.
2D Shapes
Add lines, circles, rectangles, and other two-dimensional shapes to your design. Resize, rotate, move, and customize them to match your project.
3D Shapes
Create and edit three-dimensional objects in the workspace. Rotate models, change their size, adjust their position, and combine different objects in one project.
Stickers and Textures
Apply built-in stickers and textures to your designs. Stickers can wrap around 3D objects, and custom images can also be added to personalize a project.
2D and 3D Text
Add text to images and creative projects using two-dimensional or three-dimensional text options. Choose fonts and adjust the text to fit your design.
Magic Select
Extract objects from images and create cleaner cutouts. Magic Select can help separate a subject from its background for further editing.
Effects
Change the visual appearance of your project with built-in effects. Use different lighting and creative treatments to give your artwork a different mood.
Canvas
The canvas is your main working area. Adjust its size, switch it on or off, and use transparency when you need a cleaner background for your design.
3D Model Library
Explore ready-made 3D models and add them to your project without building every object from scratch. Models can be resized, rotated, and customized.
