What it does

You know the night: a sculpted pendant, a few thousand stones, and every one placed by hand. Scatter tools give you overlaps, gaps and prongs that look random.

You know the night: a sculpted pendant, a few thousand stones, and every one placed by hand. Scatter tools give you overlaps, gaps and prongs that look random.

DGE Auto Pavé Creator is a Blender add-on that covers curved and sculpted jewelry with a honeycomb of touching round diamonds and shared bead prongs.

7,800

stones on the face pendant, in about 1 minute

12,700

stones on the lion head, in about 2 minutes

1.3 mm

stones, on an i5-11400H laptop

Real pieces, real times. The face pendant also gets about 13,000 shared beads, the lion head about 21,000.

Manes, faces and fingers get smaller stones automatically, and the size changes hide in the creases.

The shared beads are even and domed, and they never sit on a stone's table.

You set the size, paint where stones can't go and add rails. The tool does the placing.

Openings get smaller stones, and the smallest gaps get beads.

Made for

Blender creators making iced pendants, grills, rings and character pieces for avatars, games, renders and portfolios.

Not for

Casting. Stones touch, the way iced digital pieces look, so this isn't a manufacturing layout. For cast pieces, see the Casting Edition.
