Turn one photo into a 3D model
Upload a product shot, a character render or a sketch of an object.
Drag to turn
Make a 3D model from this photo with Rodin Gen-2, with PBR materials
How it works
Add a clean photo
One object, well lit, on a plain background. Remove the background first if it's busy.
Choose the 3D model
Rodin Gen-2.5 for crisp quad meshes, Tripo H3.1 for the closest match to the photo, Rodin Gen-2.5 Fast for cheap drafts, or TRELLIS.2 and Hunyuan3D 3.1.
Preview and download
Turn the model in the browser and download the GLB.
More about Image to 3D
Upload a product shot, a character render or a sketch of an object. Rodin Gen-2.5, Rodin Gen-2.5 Fast, Tripo H3.1, TRELLIS.2, Rodin Gen-2 or Hunyuan3D 3.1 reconstructs it as a textured mesh with materials, ready to download as GLB.
What you get
- Make 3D from any image
- Every image in PhotoGenius has a Make 3D action, so generated products go straight to a mesh.
- Textured GLB
- Geometry and textures in one file.
- PBR materials
- Roughness and metalness maps for real lighting.
- Clean inputs in one click
- Remove the background for 1 credit before meshing.

Questions
What photo works best for image to 3D?
A single object in a three-quarter view, sharp and evenly lit, on a plain background. Busy scenes and several objects give weaker meshes.
Can I make a 3D model of a person?
Characters and figurines work. Photos of real people must follow our content policy.
Do I get the back of the object?
The model infers unseen sides from one image, so the back is a best guess. Front three-quarter views give it the most to work with.
Can I turn a photo into an STL for 3D printing?
Yes. Make the model here, download the GLB, and convert it to STL or 3MF with the free 3D converter, which also scales it to the height you want in millimetres.
Can I use the results commercially?
Commercial use is included on the Pro and Business plans. See the Terms of Service for the details of the license.
