Hunyuan3D

Hunyuan3D generates textured 3D assets from reference images or text and can run on your own computer. It's for 3D artists, hobbyists and developers who want AI-generated meshes they can use in other software. It supports macOS, Windows and Linux; Hunyuan3D Studio is a separate hosted option.

Shape and texture generation are separate. Hunyuan3D-DiT creates geometry from an image, while Hunyuan3D-Paint adds texture maps. That separation lets you generate a bare mesh or apply textures to a model you've made yourself, without generating its shape again. Multiview models accept several reference images for shape generation, and smaller models and distilled Fast and Turbo variants provide alternatives to the standard models.

For artists, the Blender addon brings generation into an existing modeling workflow through a locally hosted API. Community integrations include ComfyUI-Hunyuan3DWrapper and ComfyUI-3D-Pack. Meshes can export as GLB or OBJ for use elsewhere.

You can use a self-hosted Gradio browser interface or connect your own application to the local API for image-to-3D, text-to-3D and mesh texturing. The Python library also exposes shape and texture generation separately. Local generation runs on your hardware; the official website offers generation without self-hosting. The stated GPU memory requirement is 6 GB of VRAM for shape generation, or 16 GB for shape and texture generation together.
