Vector To 3D earns its place in the Superhive library by collapsing SVG-to-mesh work into a single panel, covering import, layer selection, and extrusion settings without manual modeling.
Vector To 3D is a Blender addon from Blender Procedural for turning SVG vector files into 3D models. A single click transforms an SVG into a clean 3D model, and because it reads standard vector files, it works with designs exported from Illustrator, Figma, Inkscape, CorelDRAW, and more.
The workflow runs inside Blender through an interface built for the task. Import a design with the Import Vector File (SVG) button, browse and pick a layer or icon in the Icon Selection Panel, then adjust extrusion depth, bevels, resolution, and curve offsets. Clicking Apply & Convert Mesh generates the 3D model, suited to 3D icons, banners, logos, and UI/UX mockups.
The addon supports Blender 4.0 through 5.0 and works with the Cycles and Eevee render engines. It is released under the GPL license and has recorded 200+ sales on Superhive. A demo video is available for a closer look.
Vector To 3D is best for designers, game developers, UI/UX designers, and motion graphics artists creating 3D icons, banners, logos, and mockups from vector art.
Vector To 3D is completely free to download and use.
Vector To 3D lists support for Blender versions 4.0 through 5.0, so it covers the 4.x series up to 5.0. If you are running a release inside that range, the addon is intended to work with your version. It also works with the Cycles and Eevee render engines, so converted meshes can be rendered in either. For the current version and any compatibility notes, the developer's page is the place to confirm before installing.
Vector To 3D works with SVG files, so it accepts designs from any vector tool that exports that format. The developer lists Illustrator, Figma, Inkscape, and CorelDRAW as compatible, along with others. You bring a design in through the Import Vector File (SVG) button inside Blender, then browse and pick the layer or icon you want in the Icon Selection Panel. From there you adjust the conversion settings and generate the mesh, keeping the whole process within Blender.
Vector To 3D follows a short sequence inside Blender. First, import your design with the Import Vector File (SVG) button. Next, browse and select the layer or icon you want in the Icon Selection Panel. Then adjust the settings such as extrusion depth, bevels, resolution, and curve offsets to shape the result. Finally, click Apply & Convert Mesh to generate the 3D model. The addon is built to handle this in a few clicks, producing outputs like 3D icons, banners, logos, and mockups.
Vector To 3D is listed as free in this catalog. Licensing and pricing can change, so the developer's page on Superhive is the best place to confirm the current terms before you download. The addon is released under the GPL license, and it has recorded 200+ sales on the platform. If you want to see how the tool behaves before committing, a demo video is available to review.
Vector To 3D is built to work with the Cycles and Eevee render engines in Blender, so the 3D models it generates can be rendered in either. It supports Blender versions 4.0 through 5.0 and is released under the GPL license. Once an SVG is converted into a mesh through the Apply & Convert Mesh step, the resulting geometry sits in your Blender scene like any other model and can be lit and rendered with the engine you prefer.
