The skin/slice modeling solution uses UV mapping to apply its textures, so you wouldn't be able to accurately use Meshpaint on objects that are skinned because you can't apply UV mapping to a general mesh object, and Meshpaint works directly from mapping coordinates the YOU apply in the Editor. Metaballs, however, LOVES Meshpaint – because you are outputting a polyginal mesh that is treated the same as anyother sphere or cube, it will work. It will not work on metaballs that are being generated through an axp in the keyframes for each frame. hope this helps point you in a direction -Kyle
