Draw Things

Draw Things may seem like a simple app at first glance, but it’s an incredibly powerful tool for generating AI-assisted images, particularly useful for artists and game designers. It serves as a platform that supports a wide variety of AI models, enabling users to create diverse styles and materials for their projects.

One of the standout features of Draw Things is its ability to integrate Depth Maps from models in programs like Maya (I use DaVici Resolve for pictures). By using these depth maps, you can effectively “guide” the AI to maintain consistent shapes and forms across different images, allowing for variations in style and texture while keeping the core design intact. This makes the tool incredibly flexible and reliable for creating multiple iterations of the same design in different aesthetics—whether you’re working on futuristic concepts, gritty realism, or any other style.

Additionally, the app offers access to thousands of pre-made models tailored for different art styles, making it a versatile tool for everything from concept art to final renders. For your work in first-person shooters like Call of Duty, the ability to generate hundreds of variations of the same scene or character while controlling the realism and style is a massive time-saver, especially when working on game assets intended for engines like Unreal.

With the capacity to customize and blend different AI models, Draw Things is not just a toy but a creative powerhouse that allows for a fine degree of control over the artistic process. This is particularly helpful for generating quick concept art, testing different looks for game levels, and even refining art direction based on varying stylistic prompts—all within a single app.
