Key Features

Pepr3D is an intuitive, free, and open-source 3D painting tool for coloring models intended for colorful 3D printing.

  • Primarily, we support multi-material 3D FDM printers such as Prusa printers with their multi-material upgrades.

  • Import existing single-color 3D models in various formats (.obj, .stl, and more), e.g., from Thingiverse.

  • Color the model surface with intuitive tools such as triangle painter or paint bucket that follow the triangle topology.

  • Paint details and texts using brush and text editor tools. They are not limited by the original topology!

  • For faster painting, segment the model automatically or semi-automatically.

  • Export the final result into individual .stl files using our easy-to-use export assistant.

  • The exported files can be printed directly via the official Prusa Slicer (GitHub) using a multi-material Prusa 3D printer.
