Free beta version. Free and Pro editions are planned for launch; final features and pricing will be announced before the transition.
Clean up a texture, isolate a detail or change the colour. Choose a tool below to see the steps in PhotoBlend.
Brush
EraserKeep highlights, cleanup and paint on separate layers so the next revision stays simple.
Add a new pixel layer and select it in the layer stack.
Select Brush in the left toolbar. Right-click the canvas to set radius, hardness, colour, opacity and flow.
Draw on the canvas. Switch to Eraser to remove pixels from that layer; the GPU preview updates the composite.
Rectangle marquee
Ellipse marquee
Polygon lasso
Freehand lassoWork on one detail without changing the rest. Select a shape or trace its outline, then refine it.
Use Rectangle or Ellipse for a shape, Polygon Lasso for corners, or Freehand Lasso for a drawn outline.
Drag a marquee or freehand outline. With Polygon Lasso, click the corners and finish the outline.
Hold Shift to add and Ctrl to subtract. Copy selected pixels into a new layer with Ctrl+J.
Layer maskBrushEraserTry a different edge or reveal more detail. An editable mask lets you change your mind.
Select a layer and choose the mask button, or Reveal All in the Mask section.
Click the mask thumbnail beside the layer thumbnail. Paint black to hide and white to reveal.
Right-click the mask for its options. Disable it to compare, or copy and paste it onto another layer.
AdjustmentLayer maskRefine contrast, exposure and colour while keeping the controls editable for the next pass.
Choose an adjustment from the layer controls: Curves, Levels, Exposure, Color Balance and more.
Change the curve or values in the Adjustment panel. Levels includes RGB and individual colour channels.
Move the adjustment in the stack and use a mask or opacity to control the result. Supported PSD adjustments retain their imported settings.
Transform
Layer groupPosition a detail, resize a group or move several layers together with one transform box.
Choose the layers or group in the layer stack, then press Ctrl+T.
Drag on the canvas to move the selection. Use the handles to resize and the rotation control to rotate.
Press Enter to finish. Right-click to cancel the focused transform.
Layer groupLayer maskAdjustmentContinue a supported PSD inside Blender with its layer names, groups and masks in place.
Choose Open PSD and select a PSD or PSB file.
Select individual layers, groups, masks and supported adjustments. Their imported names remain in the stack.
Choose Export PSD. Preserve the rendered appearance or export supported editable settings; keep your original document too.
Shortcuts shown here are defaults. Change them in PhotoBlend's Shortcuts panel to suit your workflow.
Already started in Photoshop? Open your PSD or PSB in PhotoBlend and continue with supported layers, groups, pixel masks and adjustments. Your layer names and organisation come with it.
Export supported adjustments as editable PSD settings, or preserve the rendered appearance with PhotoBlend source layers retained in the file.
PSD compatibility is evolving. Some effects arrive as rendered layers or groups; unsupported blend modes and unknown adjustments may need simplification in the source editor. Keep your original PSD and Blender file.
Planned features. These are not included in the current beta.
Automatic background removal and alpha cutouts for faster texture preparation.
AI tools and automated cleanup for repetitive image-editing work.
Paint on the model into the selected PhotoBlend layer while the material displays the full composite.
