4 use cases

  • Turn a picture into a rigged, animated game character

    Go from one picture or sentence to a textured humanoid with a skeleton and a chosen move, exported as GLB.

    View prompt
    Using the AssetFurnace repo at <install folder>, make a rigged humanoid from the picture at <picture path>, apply the walk move, and export the animated GLB. Verify that the output file is a GLB that contains a skeleton and an animation track.

  • Make nine game-ready props from one prompt

    Generate one sheet of props and split it into separate named 3D props with LODs and compressed textures.

    View prompt
    Using the AssetFurnace repo at <install folder>, generate a prop sheet from the prompt '<prompt>' and split it into nine props. Verify that nine separate named props are produced, each with three LOD levels.

  • Keep logos and text sharp on a low-poly model

    Use Pixel Match to copy the real pixels of your picture back onto a Pixal3D model cut to about 5k faces.

    View prompt
    Using the AssetFurnace repo at <install folder>, build a Pixal3D model from <picture path> with Pixel Match on and Finish set to about 5k faces. Verify that the text '<visible text>' is legible on the model surface.

  • Let Claude Code or Codex make and tweak 3D assets

    Connect AssetFurnace as an MCP tool so your coding agent makes, checks and adjusts 3D assets locally.

    View prompt
    Using the AssetFurnace MCP server in the repo at <install folder>, make a 3D model of <subject>, check the run status, and open the result in the studio. Verify that the agent asks before downloading any model weights and that the output file exists on disk.

How to use Image to 3dlab

  1. Check you have what it needs: An Apple Silicon Mac or an NVIDIA PC (Linux or Windows per the README), or a Linux AMD card with ROCm for the Pixal3D route; Terminal access to run the install line; Free disk space for model weights, for example 8.4 GB for Pixal3D and 6.6 GB for Front + back.
  2. Open Bingeljell/image-to-3dlab on GitHub and read the README and license.
  3. Run curl -fsSL https://assetfurnace.com/install.sh | bash in a terminal and wait for the studio to open in your browser.
  4. In Setup & Status, choose the model weights you want, check the size and licence shown, and approve the download.
  5. In the studio, drop a picture of a humanoid, or press + Create and type a sentence, then press Create to run the steps.
  6. Press Rig so SkinTokens fits a skeleton and skin weights to the character.

These steps come from our top use case, Turn a picture into a rigged, animated game character, which also has a copy-paste agent prompt.
