I sometimes pre-paint a 3D printed miniature in Zbrush to get a feel for the model and what colors I might use. Yesterday I suddenly realized that I could do the same thing in VR - and wondered why I hadn't tried it before. Fun stuff. I get so frustrated with my poor eyesight when painting small details. Not a problem in VR, just blow the mini up to the size of a car and keep painting. :)

I'm mimicking putting on the base coat here. I plan to do some more experiments then maybe make another video to show what I've learned.

Model is by RN Estudio, amazing mini makers! https://www.patreon.com/rnestudio/posts

Software is Oculus Medium used on my Oculus Quest.
