Hi Ed, I can paint on it, the problem is that Modo doesn't have any import dialogue like Carrara or Hex which allows you to import things like this as seperate meshes. I made each petal it's own object in Hex so it would be easier to paint. Modo imports it as a single mesh and so even with a 4k UV map to cover all of the textures on a single unwrap it becomes more or less impossible to manage. Were the file a single charecter mesh it would be no problem, but multiple meshes like this aren't well suited for painting in Modo or perhaps any other app, not too sure about this yet..
