Next Level AI Tool : Turn Text/Images to PhotoRealistic 3D Rigged Model with ChatAvatar
TLDRThis video tutorial introduces ChatAvatar, an AI tool capable of creating photorealistic 3D avatars from text descriptions or images. The technology behind it, known as 'Dream Face,' is detailed in a published paper linked in the video description. The process involves chatting with an AI assistant to refine character details and select model styles, such as 'hero style' or 'tunify style,' which resembles Pixar or Disney characters. Users can upload single or multiple images to generate a detailed base mesh that matches the original image. The final 3D avatar can be packed and downloaded with various customization options, costing one credit per item. The video also demonstrates how to import the ChatAvatar into Blender and adjust render settings for optimal texture display. The tutorial concludes with an offer of free credits for the first 99 users using a provided code.

Outlines
🎨 Generating 3D Avatars with Chat Avatar AI
This paragraph introduces the Chat Avatar tool, an AI-driven technology that can create photorealistic 3D avatars. It demonstrates the process of generating an avatar from text, using a conversational interface to refine the character details. The user can select different styles, such as hero or tunify (Pixar/Disney style), and even upload multiple images to influence the final model. The technology relies on 'dream face,' and the user is provided with a link to a related research paper. The paragraph also covers the steps to generate an avatar from a single image or a combination of images, adjusting the weight of each image to affect the final result.
📦 Downloading and Importing the 3D Avatar into Blender
After generating the desired 3D avatar, the user is guided through the process of downloading the model by selecting options such as resolution and features like topology, eyes, teeth, blend shape, and back texture. The user is informed about the cost associated with each item and is provided with a code for a free credit offer. Once the avatar is packed and ready, the user can download it and import it into Blender using a specific add-in. The paragraph also explains how to install the add-in in Blender and import the avatar with various settings such as resolution and topology.
🔧 Adjusting and Finalizing the 3D Avatar in Blender
The final paragraph focuses on the adjustments and final touches to the imported 3D avatar in Blender. It covers how to address issues like texture not displaying correctly by changing the blend mode to 'Alpha hashed.' The user is also shown how to manipulate shape keys to ensure the model's features work as expected. The paragraph concludes with a thank you note for watching the tutorial and an invitation to explore the video further.
