I was looking at the Southern Noble outfit in the attached image. I thought Armor Paint would be a lot more intuitive, but it turns out I was wrong. I feel like I'm doing this all wrong, or that there's something I'm missing that would be obvious to an experienced 3d artist. The most I could figure out in Blender is that, if I wanted to paint a texture on an OBJ with multiple material groups (is that the right terminology?), I need to select every component in the scene separately, go to each of said component's materials, assign a new image texture to each material.go to Slots at some point to add a paint layer, that should be there after I click on the "New" next to the image bar and assign a name + properties. Is there anything out there for a non-3D artist like myself that would let me deal with this one very specific issue? I heard mention of a program called UVMapper, but all I could find online was an old program with a professional version that could not be purchsed. So, something like Substance Painter is out of the question. I'm looking for the cheapest, or perhaps free application that would allow me to both paint over an existing texture, as well as see the results on the object in real-time.
Templates for these particular products were not included, and thanks to (I think) JPG artifacts, my attempts to create my own templates result in some stray white pixels showing up. It's particularly noticeable because I'm using some toon shading materials, and rendering the images in a cel-shading style that uses discrete separations of colors.
OLD POST: Some assets I purchased had some very jarring seams, that I did not notice on the product page. Hopefully this can help others who are new to the software.
I've updated the title to reflect this, while leaving the the original posts intact. NOTE: This topic started as an inquiry about affordable or free UV painting programs, but thanks to some very helpful users, it's become a great resource for learning the texture-painting workflow in Blender.
