Artlist AI Tools can turn a written prompt or a single image into a textured 3D model. Spin it, inspect it from every angle, and download it in the format your project needs.
Choose a model
Four 3D models are available, and each one supports text-to-3D and image-to-3D:
- Hunyuan 3D v3.1 Pro: detailed models with PBR materials.
- Tripo H3.1: fast iteration and clean, game-ready geometry.
- Meshy v7: export-friendly models for games, AR and printing.
- Hyper3D Rodin v2.5 Fast: a fast option for quickly generating 3D models.
Generate a 3D model
- Open Artlist AI Tools and, in the prompt box, select the 3D Model category.
- Choose a model.
- Choose how to start: describe your idea in the prompt box, or upload a single image.
- Pick a Preset: Low, Medium or High. On most models, higher presets add more detail. Hyper3D Rodin v2.5 Fast costs the same on every preset.
- Click Generate.
Your 3D model appears in your session and in My Library, like any other creation.
View your 3D model
- Hover over a 3D model in the grid and it spins.
- Click it to open the asset view, where you can orbit and zoom to inspect it from every angle.
Download your 3D model
Open the asset and use the download menu to choose a format. The formats available depend on the model you used.
- GLB: web viewers, AR and most game engines.
- USDZ: Apple AR.
- FBX: editing and animation software.
- OBJ: a widely supported general-purpose format.
- STL: 3D printing.
- BLEND: Blender.
Use 3D with the Artlist MCP
You can also generate 3D models from your AI assistant. Learn more in Artlist MCP: Connect Claude, ChatGPT, and VS Code to Artlist.
Tips for better 3D models
- Describe one object at a time, with its material, shape and style.
- For image-to-3D, use a single clear subject.
- Explore on Low or Medium, then run your best idea on High.
- Prompt length limits differ by model: Meshy v7 allows up to 600 characters, Hunyuan 3D v3.1 Pro and Tripo H3.1 up to 1,024.
Commonly asked questions
Why is there no aspect ratio or Style Kit for 3D?
Aspect ratio and Style Kit do not apply to 3D models, so they are not shown in 3D.
Can I rig or animate my 3D model?
Not yet. Rigging, animation and texture prompts are not available for 3D models.
Can I use a 3D model as a reference in other generations?
Not yet. 3D models cannot be used as reference inputs.
Can I add a 3D model to Favorites or a folder?
Not yet. 3D models are saved to My Library.
How many credits does a 3D model cost?
The cost depends on the model and preset you choose. See Artlist AI Tools: Understanding AI credits for 3D for the full list.
