Astra is so cracked at Blender.
You can literally one-shot game assets with it.
A macOS simulator written in 75 minutes. An old drawing of a steam train rebuilt in Blender as 3,295 editable objects. A game that took one prompt. We are collecting the best of it here, each in the builder's own words. Nobody in these bylines is on eChai, and every post links back to where it was written.
Astra is so cracked at Blender.

I gave the new GPT-6 Astra one task:
Build an interactive 3D turbocharger. Separate every working system. Let me rotate it, isolate parts, and see what the machine is actually doing.
It returned this.
The output is 3,295 separate editable objects rather than one baked mesh, which is the difference between a picture of a model and a file somebody can work in.
So how good really is GPT-6 Astra at 3D modeling?
I took an old drawing of a steam train, gave it to Astra to reconstruct it in Blender. After few minutes it crafted 3,295 fully editable detailed objects with beautiful geometry. You can obviously tell it how detailed or simplified you want it.
I used to love playing with trains when I was younger. Recently, I saw someone create a voxel-based train table using Fable 5.1, so I had to try something similar with GPT-6 Astra using three.js. It turned out absolutely amazing!
I built a really cool "ship in a bottle" with GPT-6 Astra! This one is special, super detailed 17th-century voxel ship, sails in rolling waves with real physics, circling gulls, a tiny harbor & coral reefs, all made with Three.js! Cinematic video & relaxing music also by Astra!
GPT-6 Astra recreated the Palace of Fine arts in Blender.
This is favorite building in San Francisco because it was built for the World's Fair in 1914 where the steam locomotive and telephone were showed off. It was a time when technology gave us all a deep sense of optimism for the future.
Two models rather than one: the scene was built with Fable 5.1 and Astra together.
Built a villa scene in Blender with Fable 5.1 and GPT-6 Astra
This is what it built
Astra is a monster at 3D, it one shotted this model of @ChelseaFC's stadium, Stamford Bridge.
I can't wait to see the games and models you all create with this model.
GPT-6 Astra just vibe-coded the Oval Office in 3D.
We described the set design > GPT-6 Astra generated the scene code > Higgsfield built the location model in Blender and rendered it with Cycles.
The whole pipeline ran end-to-end on Higgsfield Supercomputer.
Astra's understanding of 3D assets and spacial awareness is beyond anything else.
GPT-6 Astra is a beast. Give it a Zillow listing. It can 3D model the house based on the listing photos and create a cool promotion video.
The video was just created in one shot and there are still some wrong details. But I am sure it will be much better if I ask it to polish further.
GPT-6 Astra “uses Unity to assemble a city scene from existing assets,
allowing users to easily create an immersive 3D environment to explore that matches their vision.”
Astra is very good at 3D modeling, and I can't wait for all of you to experience it, for now here is a little walkthrough on how I built the demo house for our launch blog post. From a Blender scene to a Unreal Engine 5 walkable experience. 🧵
Pietro Schirano, of MagicPath, had early access. This is the first of six tests he posted.
I had early access to GPT-6. This model will completely shatter your understanding of what's possible, and it will start a new era of creativity.
It's hard to explain how big of a jump this is, so I'll share my tests.
