Pro tips for best results

Use the right kind of image

This works best with:

• High-contrast images

• Transparent backgrounds

• Single, clear subjects like characters, buildings, or objects

Avoid busy photos

If the image has a lot going on, the AI may misread shapes and produce a messy result.

Remove backgrounds before uploading

For best results, remove the background first. You can use any background-removal tool, including:

• ChatGPT (image editing)

• Sloyd’s built-in image edit feature

• Any external tools

Use the model in your 3D software

After exporting, import the file into your tool of choice, for example:

• Blender

• Unreal Engine

• Unity

• Roblox

The result is a clean mesh that follows the shape of your image, ready to use as an asset.
