5 Top Webtoon Background Programs

5 of the top Webtoon background programs that Digital Webtoon Comic artist use are Clara.io, ACON3D, Sketchup, Clip Studio Paint assets and Home Design 3D~

Here is my video breaking down how I make my webtoon backgrounds using Clip Studio Paint EX free 3D models

  • Sketchup – Is one of the most popular apps that webtoon artist use to build their 3D backgrounds from scratch but it does have a steep learning curve but it’s still very useful and popular

  • Clara.io – Is a great free alternative to Sketchup because not only can you use them to make 3D model webtoon backgrounds on your mobile tablets but you can also export .stl files to .obj or .fbx files for free unlike in the sketchup free version

  • ACON3D – Also has a lot of Webtoon centric 3D Backgrounds that they have available for webtoon comic creators to use but keep in mind that their 3D file format is .skp which can be used within Sketchup

  • Home Design 3D – Now I know this app is used for interior design purposes but I also like to use it to quickly design interior background for home scenes for my comic. It allows you to save it as a jpg and then I can import it into whatever art program I use (like ibispaint or clip studio paint) and paint over it to turn it into a webtoon background~
