After all these rapid AI Art innovations in the last six months, 2022 ends on a high note giving us access to Point E, the text-to-3D program. It's sure to get more powerful in 2023!
1) Text-to-3D
During the Zoom drawing session of December 27th, Holly showed us the 3D objects she created from text, after she imported them into Blender. One of the objects was a 2d-image-to-3D (the two cubes on the left):
Holly created these five objects
from a Point E program
For fun I uploaded the above screen grab to Midjourney, and that AI program generated the image below:
Midjourney prompt: "cube corgi plant car"
2) Image-to-3D
Javelina drawing, morbidly obese horse, my drawing (l to r)
OBJ files generated in the Point E demo

I found an online program on Hugging Face that allowed me to use the Point E program -- Point-E text-to-3D Demo. It allows text-to-3D and image-to-3D.
Morbidly Obese Horse
So I uploaded the "a morbidly obese horse" generated in Midjourney by Greebly, and created an OBJ 3D file in the Point E demo:
Midjourney prompt: "a morbidly obese horse"
The Point E demo created a 3D OBJ file, that one can open and develop in Blender, though it was not pretty:
I then uploaded one of my drawings to the Point E demo, and created another ugly 3D file:

I opened the OBJ file
in Paint 3D

Javelina Drawing
Perhaps more successfully I first created an image in Midjourney, blending my drawing with a Midjourney image of an Egyptian javelina, and then uploaded that result to create a 3D file:
Midjourney -- 2 image mix

3) Magic Mix
I did texture the OBJ file
after I opened it in Paint 3D

I think the simpler javelina drawing figure gave a better 3D result. So that after a bit of manipulation, one might be able to finesse something useable from the Point E program.
- YouTube: Point-E | How To Use It -- this video explains how to download the Point E code from GitHub and run it in Goolge Colab notebook online.
Magic Mix is a more semantic "image-to-image" program:
Midjourney prompt: "a morbidly obese horse"
prompt: "Honda automobile"
Midjourney to Magic Mix conversion
