  • Monster Mash (monstermash.zone/) is a really cool & free web tool to quickly convert your 2D drawings or images into 3D meshes and even animate them! The results aren't perfect but with a few adjustments in Blender you can improve them quite a bit.

      It wasn't "never going to happen", the prediction was that the use of complex symbolic systems, e.g. like musical notation, will be a relatively easy task and it is. Cognitive skills is the barrier, at least with our computational capacity nowadays or in the near future, because Quantum Computing is not an applicable solution. It's overhyped (by non scientists, professionals of the field don't expect great leaps for several reasons) and still in an rudimentary stage.

      @@shawnlee5482 Yeah, you can. For geometric objects such as houses, look into something called fSpy which can match camera angles and export those to Blender -- but you still have to model the object yourself. More generally, and especially for more organic forms, check out photogrammetry where you can make very detailed models from a large series of photographs. You can even use video shot from your smartphone with you walking around the object. Meshroom is a free and opensource program to convert those images into a 3D model which you can then use in any 3D software to clean up and refine.

    This seems like it could become very powerful very fast if it were updated to be able to include being able to define the model's sides and back, plus an auto-trace. It'd certainly be interesting if it gained the ability to take a drawn character reference sheet and compose a model out of such a thing.

      Besides, wouldn't do anyone any good if they can't draw well enough to make a decent looking model, and you'd still need to have an eye for depth for post-generation touch ups since I don't think that's something you can feasibly get across in drawings, at least not in a way that's useful for transcribing the drawing to a 3D entity.

    Question: can you animate the model in Blender? I'm still new to Blender.

      Yes, you can. You either have to rig the model or use shape keys. Both techniques are well covered in several CZcams tutorials, just search for them. I hope this helps you:)
