Blender add-on that projects an object's geometry onto surfaces using its shadow.

What Shadow Retopology does

Shadow Retopology, in early access, uses an object's shadow to project its geometry onto a receiving surface. It supports Cycles and Eevee.

That makes it possible to retopologize a large area of a scanned character or mesh in one click, print a premade topology onto a surface, or create stickers from animals, characters and props. You can keep the original material or apply the shadow material, and convert the shadow into an editable 3D object. Documentation is included.

Key features

  • Shadow-based geometry projection
  • One-click retopology on scanned meshes
  • Sticker creation from any 3D object
  • Convert shadow to editable object
