A GPL-licensed add-on from Bissieres Guillaume, a Blender Development Fund contributor. It uses AI depth estimation to build clean, sculpt-ready height maps from images, and the model downloads itself on first use.
Bas-Relief Sculpt Add-On brings image-to-relief conversion into Blender, turning a 2D image into a bas-relief in a few clicks. It's aimed at work destined for 3D printing, CNC, or pure artistic expression, and comes from Bissieres Guillaume, a Blender Development Fund contributor.
Under the hood, the add-on generates clean, sculpt-ready height maps from images using AI-based depth estimation with the MiDaS DPT-Hybrid model, designed for artists who want fast, high-quality results with minimal clean up. The AI model downloads automatically on first use, and the tool relies on external libraries including PyTorch and OpenCV. It's also fully compatible with DepthMap Gen, so you can generate depth maps directly for your reliefs. Results may vary depending on the input images and system configuration, and it's provided as is, without warranty.
The add-on is Blender Extension compatible, listed for Blender versions 3.0 through 5.0, and licensed under GPL. Documentation is included, and a demo video is available.
Bas-Relief Sculpt Add-On is best for artists creating bas-relief from 2D images for 3D printing, CNC, or artistic work in Blender.
Bas-Relief Sculpt Add-On is completely free to download and use.
Bas-Relief Sculpt Add-On lists compatibility with Blender versions 3.0 through 5.0 and is marked as Blender Extension compatible, registered as an Add-on extension type. It's licensed under GPL and comes from Bissieres Guillaume, a Blender Development Fund contributor. Because it relies on external libraries such as PyTorch and OpenCV, and downloads its AI model on first use, having those dependencies available matters alongside the Blender version. Results may vary depending on your input images and system configuration.
Bas-Relief Sculpt Add-On relies on external libraries, specifically PyTorch and OpenCV, to run its depth estimation. It uses an AI model, MiDaS DPT-Hybrid, which is automatically downloaded the first time you use the add-on. The developer notes results may vary depending on the input images and system configuration, and the tool is provided as is, without warranty. It's also fully compatible with DepthMap Gen, letting you generate depth maps directly for your reliefs. Documentation is included with the add-on.
Bas-Relief Sculpt Add-On is listed as free in this catalog and carries a GPL license. The developer states it will always remain available for free on Gumroad, while purchasing elsewhere helps support the project and the Blender Development Fund.
