Turn 2D Images into 3D models in Blender using Perspective Plotter Addon 

How did Blender go from like... well an "alternative" to rival expensive 3D like the KING that it is? (that's rhetorical, of course I know) It's just staggering and wonderful to see stuff like this coming to Blender. Bravo.

Hi, against the issues at 5:07, you also can set the texture mode to clamp (instead of repeat).

We all love Markom3D, that goes without saying. However, at 1:00, Mr. Markom forgot to inform you (in case you haven't used FSPY) that the Green lines represent the Y axis and signify depth, and the red lines are the X axis (left & right) and if you choose to use "3 vanishing points" instead of the 2 that Mr. Markom is using, you will have a Z axis that represents height. You want to make sure that when you align these lines to various edges and planes in your image that you are aligning those colored lines in accordance to the axis that they represent. So, it's a little more than just "...select the point, click and drag into ... whatever you want..." lol

Great overview! For anyone trying this at home, for the best and most accurate results be sure to shoot a lens distortion grid with your camera and lens (with the specified focal length if it's a zoom lens) to get closer to perfect solves with Perspective Plotter. Match and work with the undistorted image in Blender, redistort your renders using your solved lens grid as part of your comp process! Important to note that I don't believe Blender has a lens grid solver built in and you'll have to use other software like NukeX to get that. Unsure of any free ones other than Meshroom but that's a bit of a different workflow.

OMG-this is exactly what I wanted to do, but couldn't find out how to do.thank you.

Cool! Thanks for sharing all of your knowledge with us Markom! You're the best! WOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! 😃

Very useful :) thanks for the Tutorial!

Yup. Definitely will download this one because I use fspy a lot but this one's already inside blender. Thank you Markom

Great video, please do more tutorials on the other features! I've had this for awhile but never could get the full use of it.

Good info! Thanks for this!

Wow! That was really cool.

This is bloody awesome.

If you want to not have extra edge loops, you can unwrap the model so it's straight, subdivide it a bunch, and bake to a new image to transform out the perspective and avoid distortion when you get rid of the subdiv and/or edge loops

Perfect job.

Knew the technique. But enjoyed rhe voiceover style. Educating, fast and entertaining.

Clever and useful!!

you forgot the part in which the walls are 500 ft high and very not to scale.

So cool

just insane

So cool this type of tool is back direct in blender..for vfx...its amazing...thx.. i would like to know more .. ,coments tips other feature too ..

Just a tip, the texture coordinate node has a 'window' output. If you use that instead of UV mapping you get a perfectly aligned image with the camera, although it will move as soon as the camera does

Sick

Wow thank you , this project final can to adjust in unrealengine5?

ok, but how do you make it match a drawing for a background in a comic book? I built as scene for a comic I'm working on, and it's hard to match the perspective sometimes

Holy grail

new to blender ive been following along til 2:19 G Z i dont know how to scale my square to match the wall then move it to the Y I'm still learning blender so I had to watch other videos to learn to remove the faces lol just need to know the scale part now if anyone could help. I tried the scale and transform but it just makes it to long or wide it doesn't follow with the tutorial. :(

i cant see any addon in sidebar to select or use what to do?

I find this addon intersting, but I think it is missing one element from FSPY wich is the "principal point" feature. This is available in FSPY where you have to identify a 3d vanishing point to be more accurate. Maybe is it available in the plotter addon though.

Don’t the perspective guides for each axis have to share a plane? I think that’s what’s responsible for the lack of accuracy in this case. I couldn’t be furthest from a specialist but I think at some point in the past I read that somewhere and I started to get better results.

I remember the time when we were making donuts and then again but with high resolution. now we can just take a picture and bring it to life or add it to a game or a cinematic scene. Damn we are moving so quickly. don't get me wrong I am just happy that we are progressing so quickly.

Hi There. Great video. Already got the addon. One question please: If I move the viewing angle by pressing the scroll wheel and moving the mouse, the image is all out of place and it takes 20 minutes to fix manually. Is there a way to get it back to where it was? I hope I'm being clear. Cheers Markom!

What about multiple images as a basis for scene building? Since we do not have any depth information, especially in images with only a few vertical or horizontal lines I usually need at least a second photoreference to correctly solve scale and depth of objects, especially if they are not connected to the inital reference objects.

I know it'd be silly, but what I really want is an add-on that you feed drawings to and it turns it into a mesh. Front, back, top, bottom, left, right drawings and it fills in the rest... or something, heck even 2/3 view image references, TAKE MY MONEY IF IT EVER EXISTS. As much as i enjoy modeling, as a one-man-band I'd like the process to be faster for character creation :,,)

please answer . How can I do this in maya

QUick question. So I'm being super ambitious, and I want to do this, but to an HDRI. Is it possible to use this on that too?

genius

Thanks for this! Can you add a mapping node and change it to window? I think that sorts out all the warping but might have other unwanted limitations as a mapping type...

can i get that image please that you used in video please

Siiick

Wonder if this can be a local Vectary

bro i have 1 problem A man walks near the car and then sits in the car. How will the man go along with the car? and then suddenly how will he get away from the car?(like jump) please make 1 minute animation video

Do other 3d programs require adding more geometry to flat faces to get textures to display properly? I can't imagine anyone who does low poly game texturing tolerates this problem.

🤩

Hi, is this addon also suitable for working on a large scale? e.g. when I want to insert an object into a drone photo. Fspy offers the possibility to enter the exact dimension on the axes. The file is then inserted at the correct scale. Is it possible to set the scale in the addon? It would be nice for the wall to match the actual size, to make it easier to insert interior accessories and furniture.

I want to turn an drawing into 3D but I am scared my drawing is overcomplicated

can someone help? my addon is installed correctly but plot perspective button isnt there

what happens if: whenever I use this, my camera goes under the horizon line? I have just been bringing it up manually. My scene is outside, like buildings in a city, not an indoor scene. Thansk for the content, worth the subscribe and like!

Guys I bought the add-on and did exactly what you showed on a super simple empty room photo - and after I clicked plot - I only got blue and red lines, but no HANDLES to move them. Any idea why? thank you

Hey, i'm having trouble installing the add-on. If I click on the folder, it opens up into different .py files and I have no idea which one to install and it seems like i can't install the whole folder... beginner here. Am I doing something wrong? HELP ME PLEASE.... :(

this should be native in blender

Pretty neat. But would be neater if it understood what it's looking at and built the entire scene on its own.

Back rooms now in 3d

What password ?

Any alternative free addons?

01:41 SIUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Sketchup had this feature for ages + it's way easier to work on - it has all the metric dims and easy extrusion

How do you purchase the addon? That guys website is infuriating. Its like he doesnt want to sell it.

Promise you'll leave your brain to the blender Gods to study

Glad Ronaldo found a new Job

fspy is free though, this isn't.

0:41🙃

BLENDER IS the best

Huge potential with a bit of AI to figure out where the walls are automatically.

WHY?

Why not going fspy ? (small fact : before being a stand alone, fspy was also a blender addon)

How the fuck do I add edge loops

0:42 :))))))) ... dam you man ...:))))))

Cr7 siiuu

PPlotter

BRO THE STUPID LINES ERNT SHOWING,

worst plugin doesn't work with complicated images

18 dollars

Please stop saying "siiiick" 😭

Blender completely crushed 3ds max

Great add-on, terrible demonstration. Reminds me of "and now draw the rest of the owl"

its all good, but cinema 4d can do this since 2013.
