Beginner setup plan
Choose a licensed front-view reference and write dimensions, polygon budget, texture size, and required export format. Avoid precision or safety-critical objects.
Use Meshy image-to-3D with the chosen reference. Inspect the hidden sides and silhouette, and check whether your plan permits the required download and commercial use.
Try Tripo with the same reference and acceptance criteria. Keep the better candidate; repair normals, UVs, and mesh defects in your existing 3D editor instead of endlessly regenerating.
Import into your game engine. Check scale, textures, lighting, file size, and frame-rate impact. Attach three screenshots and record unresolved defects before marking it usable.
