Combining 3D Precision and Generative AI for New Visual Workflows

anselm · x · 2026-08-01

The author shares their philosophy of combining 3D modeling with generative AI to get the best of both worlds: retaining the precision and control of 3D while leveraging generative models for rich details, realistic lighting, and speed.

The post demonstrates a procedural system (vibe-coded with Fable) inspired by a photograph of an old tower in southern France. The workflow utilizes Krea AI's real-time model initially, then shows how Nano Banana 2 can transform 3D stills into various stylized images. The author suggests this hybrid approach offers a superior creative experience compared to purely generating video or images from text prompts.
