Load a model

In the Welcome window, select the Sphere sculpt template.
(If you already closed the Welcome window, select Create > Mesh > Sphere.)

A polygonal sphere appears in the 3D View.

Mudbox includes a variety of pre-made 3D model templates you can use as the basis for your sculpted models. These simple pre-made polygonal meshes have UV texture coordinates which can be used for texture painting and texture extraction. For more information on sculpting templates, see Load a sculpt template.

NoteYou can open or import your own polygonal meshes from other 3D applications using either the File > Open or File > Import. Files must be either in the .fbx or .obj file format. For more information see Model file formats.
