I cant recommend this enough. Of all the z-brush type apps out there this one supports LW the best.

Yeah I'm kinda interested on getting 3dCoat. The good connectivity with LW is what is pulling me more to it. I would just like to know if it is possible to pay with Euros and without CC or Paypal. Can't find any infos on the website.

Kiev is Ukraine, but anyways..
Try 3d-coat. It is great! I bought it and have never regretted it.

What does it for me is that it paints normal maps at the same time as displacement. No need to subdivide a mesh to insane levels.
Back in LW I add the displacement both as a proper displacement and as a bump map. Results are very good.

Cool. I found the info. When you fill out the form you can choose the country you live in and select the currency. Also there is the chance to pay per bank transfer. Now that is cool. Lets see when I can get it. I hope latest in 2 or 3 months

Payment works well from Germany. Buy it, you really won't regret it.
Your work will reach a new level when you can so easily add normal maps and texture (and a dirt/occlusion pass).
