Projection Painting vs Direct Surface Painting

#1

Hey there,
I’m trying to clarify the advantages and disadvantages of “projection painting” as seen in MARI and “direct surface painting” like in Mudbox.
I understand the principles but it would be good, if anyone know sources that cover this topic in more detail, espacially Pros and Cons etc.
All suggestions are welcome and appreciated!

Projection painting as in Bodypaint3D paints in Render view, ie very similar to the end rendered result. Photoshop paints on the surface in a non rendered view. I’m not sure how some of the other programs do it, but someone with more knowledge should be along soon.
