Ranked around 871 on Superhive, BrickSculpt earns its place in the Blender library as a dedicated companion to Bricker, extending generated brick sculptures with Draw, Cut, Merge/Split, and Paintbrush tools.
BrickSculpt is a Blender addon for Bricker, a brick modeling and simulation tool, adding an interface and toolset for sculpting, painting, and editing the construction of brick sculptures made with Bricker. It gives you a way to tweak and customize brick models after they have been generated.
The addon centers on four tools. The Draw tool paints bricks along the path drawn by your cursor, and the new bricks merge dynamically with the rest of the model as you work. The Cut tool removes bricks one plate at a time, dividing bricks and removing the nearest 1x1 plate behind the cut. The Merge/Split tool merges bricks together or splits them into individual parts with a brush stroke, while the Paintbrush tool paints materials down to the smallest 1x1 plate, with materials chosen from a popup menu or the Color Picker.
Every adjustment is tracked by Bricker, so you can still tweak model settings and export to LDraw after customizing. It also includes sculpt support for animated Bricker models.
Bricksculpt - Sculpt With Bricks is best for bricker users who want to sculpt, paint, and edit the construction of their brick models after generating them.
Bricksculpt - Sculpt With Bricks is completely free to download and use.
BrickSculpt supports a broad range of Blender releases, including Blender 5.0, 4.4, and preliminary support for 4.5 LTS, along with 4.1, 4.2 LTS, 4.3, 4.0, and 3.6 LTS. That coverage spans several current and long-term support builds, so you can run it across older and newer projects. For the exact build you're on and any setup requirements, check the developer's page before installing.
BrickSculpt is an addon for Bricker, a brick modeling and simulation tool for Blender, so it extends models built with Bricker rather than working on its own. Its Draw, Cut, Merge/Split, and Paintbrush tools operate on brick sculptures Bricker generates, and every adjustment you make is tracked by Bricker. That tracking means you can still tweak model settings and export to LDraw even after customizing the construction.
BrickSculpt includes sculpt support for animated Bricker models, so its tools aren't limited to static builds. Alongside that, it offers new sculpt options such as area of affect, changing brick type, and weighted sculpting, plus the ability to draw bricks with custom types. The developer also notes improved performance across all tools and an improved user experience based on user feedback.
BrickSculpt is listed as free in this catalog. Because licensing terms can change over time, it's worth confirming the current details on the developer's page before you download. As an addon, it works alongside Bricker, so you'll want to check what each requires. The developer's page also covers documentation and a way to reach the developer if you run into issues while using the sculpting tools.
