Blob Fusion

by joseconseco in Addons


Blob Fusion is a Blender add-on targeted for character/creature base-meshes creation. It can be thought as mix of ZSpheres with Metaballs, combining the best of both worlds. I wished for this kind of workflow being possible, for quite some time.

For Blender 3.6 up to 4.2 use Blob Fusion 1.5.x addon

For Blender 4.2+ use Blob Fusion 1.6 extension


Features/Functionality:

  • Model your characters using two primitives: Sphere and Round Capsule Blobs

  • Auto-generated hierarchy of objects (rig like) is created, when adding new Blob

  • Library of Blobs Presets (humanoid and animals)

  • Blobs blending control to get organic results

  • Easy to use: extrude, subdivide, connect and duplicate is all you need to model

  • One click Armature generation
