ArmorPaint, the open source alternative to Substance Painter, has just received a $25k grant from Epic games to support further development. Check out the video below for a quick impression of the software. You can download the source for free. Ready to use packages can be purchased on Gumroad.
I have a LONG history with Blender - I wrote some of the earliest Blender tutorials, worked for Not a Number and helped run the crowdfunding campaign that open sourced Blender (the first one on the internet!). I founded BlenderNation in 2006 and have been editing it every single day since then ;-) I also run the Blender Artists forum and I'm Head of Community at Sketchfab.

Epic Games. Epic company.
Is Armory the GE dead now? I see the dev attention shifting to Paint.
Great news on the Mega-Grand though!
Dunno but what I do know is it used to be free,then a mega donor gets involved tho yes I use ue4 for my project, and now armor paint is no longer free, how is that a good thing ? Some of us cant even afford $17,or is there going to be free version with limited features ? Otherwise is it difficult to compile the code assuming it can be obtained ?
The source code is free, so you can download it and compile it yourself. Only the binary is paid.
Armor is very good software, I hope this will help the developer to make it even better :)
Thank You Epic!
