Due to high user demand, AI rendering is now built directly into 3DStreet — you can generate photorealistic images and videos from the Editor's snapshot dialog or the dedicated AI Generator app, without piping screenshots through external tools. See the current AI Rendering documentation for the supported workflow. We're keeping this post for historical context.

Did you know that you can realistic rendering and animations of your street scenes using free or low cost AI tools? Transform your basic 3D street designs into stunning photorealistic images and dynamic animations that will captivate stakeholders and bring your vision to life with this step-by-step guide.




In this guide, we'll walk through the complete workflow to take a 3DStreet scene from simple 3D rendering to more realistic images and animations using Black Forest Labs (BFL) and Google's Veo3 Models.

Features have changed since this post

The AI Assistant has been renamed to Console and now lives as a tab in the right-hand side panel, not a floating button at the bottom. The Report Generator described in earlier posts has been removed, and the Console now streams a live history of every editor command as pills you can rewind or replay. See the current Console documentation for up-to-date behavior. We're keeping this post for historical context.

Today we're excited to announce the beta release of the 3DStreet AI Assistant, a new way to create and modify street designs using simple natural language. Just describe the street scene you want to create, and watch as your vision comes to life – no complex 3D editing required.*

May 2026 Update: The hosting and import steps in this post (OptimizeGLB.com + paste-URL) are no longer required. 3DStreet now has a built-in custom asset upload system: drag your GLB straight into the editor and it is automatically optimized, stored in your account, and placed in the scene. The AI generation workflow below still applies — just skip steps 4 and 5 and drag-and-drop the downloaded GLB instead. See the updated docs on adding custom models.

Have you ever found yourself designing a street scene and wishing you had that perfect 3D model to bring your vision to life? Whether it's a unique piece of street furniture, a local landmark, or even a toy car, traditional 3D modeling can be time-consuming and requires specialized skills. But what if you could turn any object into a 3D model with just a couple of photos and some AI magic? Let's explore how to do exactly that!
