Hey everyone! 🌞
Sharing one of my very first projects that mixed branding and 3D, I built this using Adobe Dimension back in the day. It was such a fun way to experiment visually without needing to be a full-on 3D specialist.
Lately, though, I’ve been struggling to find a similar tool that feels light and playful (and doesn’t require a massive setup or crazy specs). I’d love to hear what you all are using for casual or semi-pro 3D work these days, especially if you’re also in the Adobe ecosystem or have found good alternatives!
Open to any recos ✨

@Smile Studio have you tried Spline or Womp?

@Madi 💫 Personally, Spline is my number one, it's way more intuitive for web-based 3D and quick mockups. Also loving Womp for packaging previews, the real-time rendering is 🔥

@Smile Studio I'm also trying to get into 3D as well. Have you tried Blender?

@Sheryl Tamayose Yesss I’ve started exploring Blender! It’s super powerful but also pretty overwhelming at first 😅 I used Adobe Dimension before for quick 3D mockups, but now trying to level up without needing a monster computer or becoming a full-on 3D artist. Let me know if you’ve found any good tutorials or lightweight setups!
