Symmetrical Painting

Is there a way to use x/y/radial symmetry to paint?

Like lets say you wanted to paint a butterfly’s wings, how would you do it?(perfectly symmetrical)

No, I’m waiting for the wish list to come back and that’s what I’m going to add. I’d love to have that in 2d… texturemaster etc It would be so handy.

What you can do for example, is paint the right butterfly wing in one layer and then duplicate the layer and flip the new layer horizontally. Now you have two butterfly wings, each a mirror image of the other.

Oh…

Yeah it would be a very neat feature to have.

Yeah you could do that WO, but that would take a lot longer =)

Of course you could create a 3d plane with max resolution and then paint in symmetry on that while in edit mode. The quality of the paint job will be limited by the mesh density of the plane…
