1

The video highlights that sculpt mode texture painting doesn't require UV mapping. How does this affect the workflow for texturing complex, sculpted models, and what are the potential limitations compared to UV-based texturing?

2

Explain the relationship between mesh resolution and texture painting quality in Blender's sculpt mode. Describe a scenario where using the subdivision surface modifier might be more advantageous than remeshing, or vice versa, for optimizing a sculpt for texture painting.
