Decal Master appears in the superhive library and is documented for the Cycles render engine on Blender 4.0 to 5.0. Its focus on placement, scaling, rotation, damage, and normal stamps keeps it a decal-specific toolset.
Decal Master is a Blender addon from CG GALAXY built for decal creation. It lets you add, blend, and customize decals, with full control over placement, scaling, rotation, damage effects, and shading. You can also apply normal stamps for enhanced detail.
The addon works through a user-friendly interface and covers decal work from adding and mixing to blending and applying damage. Free updates bring free decal packs, new features, and addon improvements. Documentation is included, and a demo video is available.
Decal Master supports Blender 4.0 through 5.0 and is documented for use with the Cycles render engine. It's released under the GPL license and appears in the superhive library. Here it's listed as free, so check the developer's page for current licensing.
Decal Master - Add Decals Like Never Before - Ultimate Addon is best for blender artists adding decals, surface damage, and detail to models without extra geometry.
Decal Master - Add Decals Like Never Before - Ultimate Addon is completely free to download and use.
Decal Master lists support for Blender 4.0 through 5.0, so it covers the 4.x line up to 5.0. If you're on a version inside that range, it should install and run as expected. For anything outside that range, results aren't described, so check the developer's page before installing. Blender compatibility can shift between releases, so confirming your exact version against the listed range is the safest step before you build the addon into a project.
Decal Master lists Cycles as its render engine. That means the addon's decal, damage, and shading results are documented against Cycles rather than another engine. If your project uses Cycles, you're aligned with what's listed; if you work in a different engine, behaviour isn't described here, so the developer's page is the place to confirm. The controls for placement, scaling, rotation, and normal stamps sit on top of that render setup.
Decal Master is listed as free in this catalog, and it's released under the GPL license. Because pricing and terms can change over time, treat the free listing here as a snapshot and check the developer's page for current licensing. The GPL license governs how the addon can be used, modified, and shared. For the definitive, up-to-date terms, the developer's own page is the authoritative source.
Decal Master comes with free updates, which the developer describes as free decal packs, new features, and addon improvements. Documentation is also included with the addon. Specifics on release timing and future contents aren't detailed here, so the developer's page is the place to see what's currently shipping. A demo video is available as well if you want a closer look at the addon before you install it.
