About Paint 3D
Paint 3D is a powerful application that allows users to easily create, edit, and share 3D content. Paint 3D is part of the Windows 10 Creators Update and is available as a free download from the Windows Store. This software can be installed on the PC, and it is not required to be purchased separately.
Its interface is intuitive, enabling users to create and interact with objects with just a few mouse clicks. As Paint 3D uses the same windows and shell as Windows 10, it provides contextual menus when right-clicking on any object or surface allowing users to customize the tools. It allows users to sculpt objects and scenes, add light source effects and textures, fine-tune creations and share finished designs with others.

Awesome evolution of Paint
Reviewed on 6/8/2021
Pros
I recently decided to use Paint 3D instead of standard Paint for a school assignment. Since I opened it, I really liked the evolution of the interface, this being more modern than the previous one. The tools to use Paint 3D in two dimensions continue to work in the same way as in the previous Paint but with some improvements and new features, which I really liked. Talking about its most remarkable change, namely the ability to now work on a z-axis, it is surprising. Although it is not a software aimed at a professional market, Paint 3D allows you to get closer to that world and get to know it in a relatively simple way.
Cons
I'm not someone who is professionally into 3D digital design, I only used Paint 3D occasionally for a school assignment and I really liked it. I didn't delve too deep into all the features of Paint 3D, but the ones that I got to try I really liked. For this reason, I didn't find any negative aspect of Paint 3D. Perhaps someone with more experience can give a more complete opinion about this software.

I have made business cards with Paint 3D and use it to sketch ideas. I attempted to use it for some of my more creative photography but wasn't happy with the results and did not publish.
I chose "Fun tool" as my review title because it is fun and entertaining but falls short of being a professional tool in most cases. Without a touchscreen device and pen even the most talented artist would struggle to create anything of quality.
Pros
The nice thing about Paint 3D is that it came ready to use on my PC. Easiest setup ever. Draw with pen, pencil, crayon, brush, and so on. Change the color, texture, and shape as desired. Choose 3D shapes and models from a categorized library and create your own 3D images. Layer objects or photos and adjust Z axis positioning.
No data/wifi connection required and no bugs or quirks.
Cons
The faunts are very limited and I haven't found a way to import more. Some of the 3D images aren't very realistic, all of the libraries need to be updated.
Other than adding to a photo there's not a lot of photo editing capability.
Nothing from paint 3D makes me want to say "oh wow!".

To be honest, it's ok. I would recommend you use it if you wanna make a quick edit as it is built in with Windows 10 (and Windows 11, I believe).
Pros
It's good if you just wanna do simple edits. Doesn't really offer a lot. The background removal feature is cool, but other than that, that features are very limited. No layers, no nothing.
Cons
I like the simple filters that are present in the app. I also like the background removal tool as it is easy to use.
