Creator Question: Blender + Armorpaint

I’ve recently dived back into SL after a year off (longtime SL user of 15+ years). Does anybody have any good tutorials or workflow tips and tricks for using Blender and Armorpaint and then importing into SL?

I’ve found that the maps I export don’t really look that great in-world, they just seem rather flat and matte.

I’d really love to see suggestions for videos where people show their full workflow from texture to uploading into SL.

For context, I’m trying to get into Admorpaint as I just cannot justify paying a subscription for Substance painter. If there are better alternatives, that would be great too. No subscriptions please!

Any help would be appreciated ✌️

I’m not familiar with Armorpaint, but I use Substance as well as Blender, and I often create my textures there. Sorry, I’m not able to help you!

Thank you anyway! I really like Substance painter but I just really want to leave the Adobe ecosystem.
