How to Create 3D Figures with AI | How to AI #6

Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Navigate to Meshi AI and Log In

1. Go to the Meshi AI website. 2. Log in to your account. You are typically granted 90 tokens/credits when you log in.
2. Note that each request for generating a 3D figure generally costs about 20 credits.

Step 2: Upload Your Image

1. Upload the 2D logo or simple image you want to convert to 3D.
2. For this demonstration, the "This Week in AI" logo was uploaded.

Step 3: Generate the 3D Render

1. Initiate the process to generate a 3D render of your uploaded image.
2. Wait for the AI to complete the generation, and then view the result.

Step 4: Explore the 3D Figure

1. Review the generated 3D figure which Meshi AI created from your simple image. This is a great tool for generating 3D renders from either an image or text prompt.

AI Prompt Section

This tutorial primarily uses an image, but if you want to generate a 3D render via a text prompt, you would use an input like the following, depending on your desired outcome:

[Insert detailed description of the 3D figure you want to create, including shape, color, and texture.]

Example:

I want to create a legendary two-handed greatsword. The blade should be a straight, massive double-edge with a faint, glowing cyan fuller running down the center. The surface should have a dark, almost obsidian-black metallic texture that absorbs most light, giving it a shadowy appearance. The cross-guard is wide and stylized, shaped like two raven wings, made of dull, antique bronze with a rough, hammered finish. The grip is long and wrapped in dark crimson, distressed leather. The pommel is a heavy, flat disc of the same antique bronze, featuring a single, glowing cyan rune at its center.

Troubleshooting

Issue: The generated 3D logo does not accurately reflect the source image.
Solution: Ensure your uploaded source image is clear, high-resolution, and has distinct, simple features. Complex or blurry images may confuse the AI.

Issue: You run out of credits too quickly.
Solution: Refine your prompts or source images before making a generation request. Each request can use up to 20 credits, so try to be as specific as possible on the first attempt to minimize retries.
