## Overview

Hunyuan3D 2 is Tencent's open-source system for generating high-resolution 3D assets, released on GitHub with model weights.

It works in two stages: one model generates the 3D shape from an image (or text), and a second model paints textures onto it. Because it's open, you can run it locally or in tools like ComfyUI, as long as you have a capable GPU and are comfortable with setup.

## Key features

- Image-to-3D shape generation
- Separate texture-painting model
- Open weights you can run locally
- Community integrations, including ComfyUI
- No per-model fees when self-hosted

## Use it for

- Generate prop drafts locally without credits
- Batch-create background objects
- Experiment with 3D generation in a custom pipeline

## Pricing

Free and open source; you only pay for your own hardware or cloud GPU. Check the repo's license terms for commercial use.

## Getting started

Clone the GitHub repo and follow its install guide, or use a community ComfyUI workflow.
