3D artists are constantly prototyping. In traditional workflows, modelers must build placeholder, low-fidelity assets to populate 3D scenes, tinkering and adjusting the core elements until they’re in place. From there, visuals can be refined, detailed and finalized. Prototyping is time consuming and often comprises throwaway work, forcing artists to spend time on tedious modeling rather
