AI Character Retopology

Character retopology is the process of recreating the surface of a high-resolution 3D character model with a much lower number of polygons. This creates a clean, optimized mesh that is suitable for animation, texturing, and use in real-time applications like video games.

Our tool functions as a visualizer. You upload an image of your high-poly 3D sculpt, and our AI generates a new image showing your model with a clean, optimized wireframe overlay. It's designed to help you concept and plan your topology, not to export a 3D file.

No, this tool provides a high-resolution PNG image of your character with the visualized retopology. It does not export a 3D model file. The generated image serves as a powerful visual guide for when you manually retopologize your model in your preferred 3D software.

For best results, upload a clear, well-lit screenshot of your high-poly character sculpt from your 3D modeling software. A simple turntable view or a three-quarter view of the face or body works well. Make sure the character's features are clearly visible.

No, this tool is a powerful assistant, not a replacement. Automatic retopology is great for saving time and generating a base, but for final, animation-ready characters, manual control is often needed to perfect the edge flow for deformation. Our tool helps you visualize that perfect result before you start.

Absolutely. The tool is perfect for creating professional-looking wireframe renders of your 3D sculpts. These images are ideal for showcasing your understanding of clean topology in your portfolio or on social media.

Good topology is crucial for animation. A clean mesh with well-placed edge loops ensures that the character deforms smoothly and realistically when it moves, especially around joints like elbows and knees, and for facial expressions.
