Can AI actually generate a production-ready 3D asset from a 2D concept, or do artists still win when it’s time to ship?

In this video, I’m stress-testing Meshy, Tripo3D, Hitem3D, and Hunyuan the only way that matters: a real AAA-style pipeline. No sponsors, no hype. Just results.

Class Creatives sent me an insane sci-fi helmet concept from veteran Art Director Dave Arredondo (Amazon Games). I built one version the traditional way, entirely by hand. Then I tested AI-generated versions that were cleaned up and polished by a pro.

The big question is simple: does the mesh actually hold up when you run it through a real game-dev workflow, or does the topology fall apart the second you touch it?

Secure your studio pipeline

Step 1: 2D Concept + AI Masterclass (Class Creatives)
Want to see how this helmet concept was built on the 2D side? Dave breaks down the full “hybrid artist” concept workflow, including Midjourney and Nano Banana, and how he got to this final design:

Step 2: 3D Production Mentorship (my 1-on-1)
If you want to take concepts like this and push them into a real game-dev pipeline with clean, production-ready topology, that’s exactly what we do in my 1-on-1 mentorship. I’ll guide you through the workflow and help you build AAA-level portfolio pieces:

The no-regrets guarantee
Six months from now you can either still be stressed about AI, or you can be the artist who knows how to use it, control it, and still ship studio-quality work. The biggest risk isn’t AI replacing you. It’s staying stuck while everyone else levels up.
