Hello! I scanned the drawing, and now I need to turn it into a 3d image very urgently. Please tell me how to do it. If possible, describe the entire sequence of actions. And more: what program should I use? More precisely, which graphics editor? I am a novice programmer who decided to create a flash game, and the artist had already passed the work by that time. How, and most importantly, with which program can you cut a picture, add a 3D effect, as in all modern video games, and endow with color? I would be very grateful for the comprehensive answer.

Closed due to the fact that the issue is too common for Kromster , andreymal , cheops , ߊߚߤߘ , Viktorov participants Jan 14 '18 at 11:03 .

Please correct the question so that it describes the specific problem with sufficient detail to determine the appropriate answer. Do not ask a few questions at once. See “How to ask a good question?” For clarification. If the question can be reformulated according to the rules set out in the certificate , edit it .

    You need to draw a height map, convert it to a normal map and render it through a bump map shader, or apply a height map on a polygonal grid if you need a mesh. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Displacement_mapping - igumnov

    Take a flat picture and stretch it in height (with your hands). Graphic editor - there are a lot of them, see blender. http :: //www.blender.org (True, such tools are not called graphic editors, but somewhat differently) - alexlz

    Bring your scan, and someone else's picture, similar to the result that you want. Maybe you can do without 3D by adding shadows and highlights? - Sergiks

No, this is a task for the artist, not for the programmer.

All the necessary graphics must provide the artist.

In order to make a three-dimensional of a two-dimensional image, you do not have enough data. The artist can fill the lack of fantasy and flair, the programmer is not obliged to do this, and if he takes it, the result in terms of design usually turns out to be disgusting.

Imagine that you were given a picture of 10x10 pixels, and asked how to process something so that you can see faces on it. Doesn't seem like a doable task? Your task is from the same series.

Let your employer spend money and hire an artist.

  • Well, not 3D. How to cut neat and add color? As I know, artists only make sketches ... - artyom_phpprogrammer
  • @prog: This is not a programmer's case. If you want to do this, demand a second salary for the artist. You will have to learn the graph. programs and develop an artistic taste. - VladD

    > As I know, artists only make sketches ... Artists are different. - nitrocaster
  • @prog, @Flammable: that's it, you need to hire such an artist who will not only make sketches. Programmers will not draw for it? - VladD
  • Indeed, in such (as in the question) formulation of the problem an artist is needed. In general, the idea is interesting. Pattern recognition, determination of the coordinates of the observer and light sources, scaling, etc. - avp
