Free Model Painter
Are there any programs that can paint directly on models, to create textures fairly easily and also paint in fairly low resolution, so I can make textures similar to models from Quake 1 and 2? A bonus would be if the program is free.

Blender.
Re: Free Model Painter
I've honestly had more success just drawing textures by hand and planning my UV maps beforehand than ever using Blender's texture painter. I can't get quite wrangle that thing, and I've heard it's less than ideal to use Blender's texture painter anyways.

Depends. I find hand-painting the basic colours in the 3D view to be a very comfortable and relaxing process.Jaxxoon R wrote:I've honestly had more success just drawing textures by hand and planning my UV maps beforehand than ever using Blender's texture painter.

Re: Free Model Painter
I am aware that Blender does have a model painting mode, but I am looking for a standalone model painter that is simpler to use, has Photoshop-esqe tools, and can paint on .md3 models.

Mudbox is free if you have a student account at an University, with the agreement that you can't sell your stuff commercially.
Re: Free Model Painter
there's paint 3d that came with one of the window 10 updates, it seems to be useful to paint models with it
