I've done a first pass on the dwarves, and they're fun.

This proves again that #AI / #StableDiffusion is a fantastic tool for designing and creating #game assets... when adequately fine-tuned.

Here's some of the exploration, so far - 🧵
The model was trained on just 11 pictures (!), with only 1500 training steps, which tuned out to be quick (20 min).

As before, the first step is to "explore“ the model with a few generic prompts. The goal is to find the modifiers that will keep a consistent style going forward.
Once the "stable modifiers" are found, it's time to select some of the best output and remove the background when needed.

"A dwarf, detailed, trending on Artstation, Clash of Clans"👇
You can add accessories or pose, for example: "A dwarf lord sitting on a throne". You get images with the throne... and the crown.
This is a group of dwarves that bear an axe 🪓 (... supposedly - since none of the pictures in the training dataset had an axe, I'm not getting the best results here)
Here's another group, this time bearing "a sword and a shield". A little bit better.
Here's a group of baby dwarves, on a baby chair
You can play with expressions too. Include "laughing" in the prompt, and you'll get characters like the ones below (male or female, btw)
Of course, I had to try my zombie trick: "a zombie dwarf, trending on Artstation, clash of clans".

Zombify everything.
I made some elves... in the style of the dwarves
Let's not forget img2img. this was a test to reproduce Russel Crowe's famous moment in Gladiator... "Are you not entertained?"
You can change the colors of the clothes simply by adjusting the prompt: green, blue, red... or bare chest
And then there's always the "fun and creative" stuff like having your characters play cricket 🏏, basketball 🏀, curling 🥌 or bobsled 🛷
This is not just about single characters, they can be generated in groups ("Dwarves in a gold mine, detailed, trending on Artstation")
And I could keep going on and on, but some other datasets are waiting :)

While images might not be final, this can accelerate design or prototyping processes. I also see RPG communities using this to build entire worlds "in the style of the game", without erratic prompting.

All these seamless, game-ready materials (including PBR maps) were fully generated with AI.

... then automatically arranged in Blender using @ManusAI_HQ.

More details in the thread! 👇
I created 16 seamless textures using app.scenario.com (@Scenario_gg).

You can check the detailed workflow + all available texture tools right here: x.com/emmanuel_2m/st… Image
Once the textures were generated, I dropped the 16 .zip files (including the texture set with PBR maps) into @ManusAI_HQ.

And prompted Manus to create a Blender file (.blend) with all the textures, nicely arranged in a circle.

In just a few minutes, the file was ready with animated, rotating spheres.Image

From multiple consistent objects within a single image to fully recreated 3D objects in Blender.

100% AI-generated.

Workflow detailed below 👇
Step 1/

Generate a grid of 6 consistent objects. For this, I used @Scenario_gg with the "Juicy Icons" model, which consistently creates cartoon-style, simplified 3D icons arranged in a grid.

Available on app.scenario.com/models/model_b…Image
Step 2/

More specifically, I used image-to-image generation combined with a quick sketch to guide the colors and positions of each object. Image

Unity MCP, let's goooo! 🚀

Absolutely loving that this is happening during GDC week 😅. My schedule's packed with meetings & meetups, so not much time to vibe code, but I spun up a basic demo for a platformer jumping game, in minutes.

This was fully prompted via Claude 3.7 (on the left), zero manual tweaks. Link below 👇 and I'll keep sharing improvements and tips!

2025 is going to be a wild year for AI-powered game devs.
I used @JustinPBarnett's MCP on Github - check it out here

So far, it feels even easier than Blender, and I can’t wait to add more actions, assets, textures, and gameplay!github.com/justinpbarnett…
My main tip so far is that, just like with Blender MCP, you should proceed step by step >> one edit or element at a time.

Otherwise, Claude will go crazy and wil try doing everything at once (and fail).

How I generated a high quality 3D model in Blender, from a simple 2D image, using Claude 3.7!

Screen capture + link + step-by-step process below👇
First, you'll need Blender + a Blender MCP. For this project, I used @VisionaryxAI 's MCP available on Github.

See

The install steps are simple and explained on the Github page.github.com/VxASI/blender-…
Feed an image to Claude (or Cursor) - I selected a simple isometric scene initially made with a custom model on @Scenario_gg .

The custom model is "Blocky Elements" and typically creates minimalist 3D render-style images ➡️ a relevant model to use for this case.

Continuing from my last threads, and sharing how to create character turnarounds with the highest consistency ✨ for:

- style ✅
- pose ✅
- character ✅

... using the #Scenario toolset to maintain all key details.

Follow the steps below 👇 - no pencil needed ✏️. Let's dive in!
⚠️ First: it's not a 'one-click-and-done' process but instead a multi-step workflow, to be tailored to your creative goals.

Second: it ensures full creative control and deliberate designs from start to finish. Randomness or chance are sidelined.

To illustrate it, I revisited 2 characters I designed five months ago: the "girl with pink hair" (), and the "sorceress with a blue hat" ()

The other 2 turnarounds ("zombie" & "ninja") had some attention yesterday with 2M+ views ()

Image
Here are the key steps to creating stunning turnaround, using #Scenario ()

1/ Train or pick a character model (A).

2/ Optionaly>, pick a style model (B). Use it to create training images for (A), or you can merge both (A + B = C) for example.

3/ Utilize the custom model (A or C) to generate consistent characters. Then select a reference image to produce initial character turnarounds in your desired poses.

4/ Refine these initial outputs using Sketching and image2image.

5/ Select the best result and refine details in the Canvas for maximum consistency.

6/ Finally, upscale your final image (up to 8K resolution.)

Designing ultra-consistent and virtually unlimited game characters in minutes with #Scenario.

Keeping it super short 😅 — because it's actually super fast🤗.

1/ Select your model.

You can choose from our selection of 170+ game art models on

Or, train your own to better fit your style.

I trained this model with only 12 images, originally generated using @artificialguybr's '3D Render Style' 🙏

Note: I'm intentionally training with consistent poses.

Spoiler alert 🚨: Next week, you'll be able to #upload your own models to Scenario! 🫣app.scenario.comImage
2/ Create consistent prompts.

It's best to maintain a similar structure between your prompts and captions.

I asked ChatGPT to use a format based on race, weapon, and outfit, with 50 initial prompts below👇👇.

Adjust as needed.Image
