Why we built it
You spot a texture seam or misaligned decal. You save, alt-tab to Photoshop, find the file, edit, export, tab back, and reload the image node—losing your creative flow a hundred times a day. The round-trip friction costs more than the fix itself.
PhotoBlend brings full Photoshop-grade texture editing into Blender. Edit textures and 2D artwork right where your 3D geometry lives, remove backgrounds in a click, convert formats, animate layers, and watch every brush stroke land live on the mesh.
Real layer stack
Non-destructive layers, blend modes, curves, levels, and opacity masks directly in the Blender N-panel.
BG removal & formats
Instantly remove backgrounds, generate alpha cutouts, and convert between PNG, JPEG, WebP, EXR, and TGA on the fly.
Animate layers & live mesh
Keyframe layer opacity and transforms across the timeline, projecting changes live onto the 3D model with zero reloading.
