FREESTYLE





More RIGGING and MOTION

I found that MESHY was really good for converting 2D images into 3D objects -- and also rigging and animating them too.  They do have a free tier:
I converted and animated one of my figure drawings from April 13, 2026 -- that had first been transformed into a more Bernini-like figure with KREA.

The key is to reposition your 2D image into a T-Pose.  I did this with FLOW/NanoBanana2 (but could not get it done in Midjourney):



I then turned the T-POSE image into a 3D model in MESHY -- but using the MESHY 5 model, which allowed me to download the GLB file:

Converted into 3D with the MESHY 5 model

The MESHY 6 model gave better, more detailed, 2D-to-3D conversion results, but one needs to have a subscription to download the MESHY 6 GLB files:

The MESHY 6 model gave better conversion results

My first attempt at animation in MESHY
was not so pretty


NOTE: MESHY did a lot better job converting 2D-to-3D than Huanyuan 3D-2.1 in KREA:

Huanyuan 3D-2.1 in KREA
was good, but not as good as MESHY

NOTE: MESHY also did a better job converting 2D-to-3D than Hunyuan 2.1Image-to-3D Simplified -- which we did with the jaguar when we ran  the program locally at Quelab on a computer with 12 GBs of VRAM:

With MESHY I am all that much closer to placing my FAKE Augmented Reality sculptures in the Albuquerque Museum Sculpture Garden:

Odd observation: The AI models all think in light and shadow, and shoe horns the results into more classical images. Imagine an AI model that thinks in motion instead, say by first breaking the image down into pieces and anticipating the physics of each part.
