MeshMolder
What it is
MeshMolder is Windows digital sculpting software for creating and painting 3D models for movies, games, animation, and general art. Its sculpting tools work like clay: users add or remove material and adjust brush thickness and coverage radius. It supports organic meshes and hard-surface modeling, with Cut, Split, and Boolean tools for detailing. Fast Insert brings in prebuilt mesh packages; the Professional version can also create packages for personal use or distribution and sale. MeshMolder can load models with over 35 million polygons, capture polypaint from .obj files, and export FBX, STL, and PLY formats. Users can paint on 3D models and automatically capture UV textures, Normal maps, and Ambient Occlusion maps. The maker says captured textures can be rendered in Keyshot or Marmoset, and models can be imported into Unreal Engine. Meshmolder 2026 is listed as free, with a 14-day trial also noted. Minimum requirements are Windows XP or newer, 4 GB memory, OpenGL 2.1, and 1 GB of free disk space.
