# Build 3D scenes in Blender by letting the agent arrange library assets, not model them

PaperChase agent use case (free feed entry), version 1.0. Source: [@sorenxet](https://x.com/sorenxet/status/2116149863935078885), 2026-10-30.

## What they did

The steps: install Blender and the official Blender MCP server, check the connection with /mcp, install BlenderKit, and ask the agent to run a test search of the library before building anything. Then paste a reference image and talk to it like a junior 3D artist. Characters get rigged in the same request. Render a low-resolution preview, check the animation step by step, and only then run the slow final render.

## Worth knowing

Splitting the job is the lesson: the library supplies objects, the agent arranges and animates, Blender renders, and a person fixes the last details. Asking the agent to model everyday objects wastes tokens and still looks fake. Check asset licences before you use a scene commercially.

## Workflow template

```text
Apply this workflow to [your project]:
1. Install Blender and its MCP server, then confirm the agent sees Blender with /mcp.
2. Add an asset library and ask the agent to run one test search before building.
3. Give a reference image and plain instructions; ask for rigging in the same request for characters.
4. Tell the agent to use library assets for everyday objects and only build what the library lacks.
5. Render a low-resolution preview and check the animation before the final render.
Stop and ask me before anything irreversible: deploys, payments, sends or deletes.
