1. Generate Asset

Generate an asset using the latest and most advanced image generation AI models or import your own images

ship asset

Once your asset is in the studio, you can either remove the background and generate other assets or segment your current asset into multiple layers

For this example we will segment our asset into different layers

2. Segment into Layers

By selecting the asset and clicking the “Segment into Layers” button this canvas will open up:

For easy segmenting we can use the following steps:

  1. Adjust the Distance Slider - Generates a mask based on estimated distance
  2. Click the Segment (Scissor) Button - Creates a new layer with a cutout based on the mask
  3. Click Remove Object - Removes the segmented layer from the image

Repeat the steps until you have divided your image into a couple layers, then click “Save Layers” to add it to your scene.
