Core Features of Shapelab Max 2026: Your 3D Sculpting Powerhouse

Shapelab Max 2026 is packed with industry-leading features to empower your creative process:

Dual Engine Modeling: Combine the power of polygon sculpting with the speed of voxel-based sketching. Shapelab’s hybrid engine lets you block out ideas in voxels, then refine them with production-ready polygon tools—all in one workflow.

Dual VR and Desktop Modes: Run Shapelab on your PC in desktop mode or use a VR headset tethered to your PC for an immersive VR experience. Switch seamlessly between modes while working on your projects.

Digital Pen and Tablet Support: Leverage the power of your digital pen and tablet with tilt, twist, and pressure sensitivity. Compatible with both Wintab and Windows Ink for precision sculpting.

Advanced Sculpting Tools: Access industry-standard sculpting tools with extensive configuration options. Brushes include Clay, Standard, Mask, Crease, Smooth, Pinch, Inflate, Snakehook, Flatten, Trim, Regularize, and 3D Stamp.

Dynamic Topology Sculpting (Optional): Enable real-time tessellation to dynamically adjust mesh detail based on your needs. Alternatively, lock your brush resolution to a specific value by sampling directly from your model for precise sculpting control.

Customizable Work Environments: Personalize your workspace:

• Import custom HDRI skyboxes or use solid colors and gradients.
• Configure ambient lighting, reflections, and directional light settings.
• Toggle the workspace floor on or off as needed.

Kitbashing with Custom Shapes and Primitives:

• Build efficiently using a built-in library of fixed shapes and parametric primitives.
• Or use your custom models added to your shape library for quick scene population.

Precision Tools: Snapping and Constraints:

• Grid and angle snapping for organized creations and constraints for more precise alignments.
• Tools for you to quickly align and reset the scene to cycle through perspectives.

Multiresolution and Subdivision Levels:

• Subdivide your mesh to create multiple levels of detail. Easily switch between them to optimize your workflow.

PBR Vertex Painting and Texture Export:

• Paint Color, Roughness, Metalness, and Emission properties directly onto your models.
• Export texture maps, including normals, PBR properties, and vertex colors, during the export process.

Remeshing and Mesh Transformations:

• Voxel remesh, subdivide, decimate, and regularize meshes.
• Perform operations like mirroring, welding, flipping, and filling holes.
• Merge vertices and quad remesh for cleaner topology.
• Detail Transfer (Projection): Transfer intricate details from high-resolution, unorganized meshes to cleaner, quad-based models.

Scene Management:

• Object hierarchy organization through parenting.
• Clone, mirror, merge, subtract, intersect, and join objects.
• Multiselect and group objects for batch operations.
• Gizmo and freehand transformations for objects and scenes.

Materials and Shading:

• Use PBR materials, MatCaps, and procedural textures.
• Import custom MatCaps or utilize built-in ones.
• Flat shading support for stylistic effects.

File Support and Import/Export: Easily import and export models in FBX, OBJ, STL, and GLB formats.
