Vextrude for Blender

Every Vextrude tool, one click away — inside your Blender viewport.

SVG extrusion, lithophane generation, 3D text, print-ready export — all as a native add-on. No more round-tripping between your browser and Blender.

What's coming

Everything you love. Inside Blender.

Four tools, one add-on. Installed in seconds, ready in your N-panel.

SVG → 3D Extrusion

Drag any SVG into the viewport. Extrude, bevel, taper, and mitre with live previews. Outputs clean, manifold meshes ready for Cycles or print.

Path modifiers Auto-manifold

Lithophane Generator

Turn any photo into a Blender mesh — flat, curved, sphere, dome, heart, or wave. Procedural depth map, adjustable thickness, and real-time preview.

6 shapes Procedural

3D Text Toolkit

Access 900+ curated fonts, curved baselines, stacked layouts, multi-language shaping. Live kerning, beveled edges, ready-made material presets.

900+ fonts RTL support

Print-Ready Export

One click to STL, OBJ, 3MF, or PLY. Auto-repairs normals, validates watertight geometry, and flags thin walls before you slice.

STL · OBJ · 3MF Auto-repair
Why it matters

Stop round-tripping through your browser.

You already model in Blender. Exporting to a web tool, re-downloading, re-importing, fixing scale, fixing origins — it breaks your flow.

Vextrude for Blender lives in your N-panel. Every Vextrude feature, native to the viewport, speaking Blender's coordinate system, respecting your units, ready for Cycles, Eevee, modifiers, and your existing scene.

Blender 4.2 — vextrude panel

> vextrude.lithophane("photo.jpg", shape="sphere")
→ mesh built in 1.4s
> vextrude.export("final.3mf")

// All without leaving Blender.
