Droplet Forge builds water drops, beads, puddles, strokes and organic forms from real physics, with clean all-quad meshes you can keep editing, and sets them in motion. Design in your browser, then open them in Blender.
No install needed to try it: the droplet on the right is built live by the same engine Blender uses.
Pebbles, bubbles, tentacles, paint strokes, shells and vessels with the same clean quads. Surfaces that decide how water beads. And a timeline that makes it all move, in the browser and in Blender.
Inflate any outline, or make pebbles, bubbles, tubes, paint strokes, shells and vessels.
Wetting per surface, beading up to 170°, your own model as the surface, export to every format.
Realistic or exaggerated presets, gravity runs that leave trails, drops that merge, video export.
From a single bead of dew to a traced logo poured in gold: start any way you like, shape it by hand, and get a mesh that renders cleanly.
A parametric shape, a curve, a mesh loop, the pen, or a photo of a sketch or logo. The dome follows real surface tension.
Drag an open stroke and it becomes a tapered liquid form. Or drop one of 19 ready-made forms at the cursor.
Pick a form and every new shape, outline or traced sketch becomes it. Same promise as the droplets: parametric, all quads, identical in the browser and in Blender.
Round shapes get flowing rings; traced logos and sketches get a regular grid that runs along their arms. Drag the slider to compare.
Same traced 4E logo, same top view, before and after the new layout.
BeforeAfter
Droplets conform to whatever they rest on and keep their volume on curved surfaces. Each surface sets how water behaves on it: glass spreads, wax beads.
A timeline for every droplet and form. Start from a preset, then refine the keys and curves, or let gravity do the work.
Press Ctrl Shift D: tools on the left, an editable 3D view, and the same Edit, Create, Material and Scene tabs as the web bench, plus Animate.
Connect the web bench to Blender on your computer: design in one, see it in the other, both ways, instantly.
Sign in with Google to save your designs. Open them in any browser or straight into Blender's My Shapes gallery.
Water and dew, honey and ink, glass and opal, metals, and thin-film iridescence. Click one to pour it onto the live droplet above. In Blender each preset is a full Principled material, and its colour shows in the viewport too.
Shape droplets in the web bench, or in Blender with Ctrl Shift D. Start from a preset, a form, a trace or the pen.
Open the benchStart the link in Blender and press Connect in the bench. Edits flow both ways; or save to My Shapes and open later.
ConnectClean all-quad meshes with real materials, ready for Cycles or EEVEE. Animate, then bake to a plain mesh, shape keys or Alembic.
See rendersEvery droplet here was built by the add-on and rendered in Blender's Cycles.
Nothing to install. Design, trace, sculpt and save, on desktop or tablet.
For Blender 4.2 or newer on Windows, macOS and Linux.
No install needed for the web bench: it runs in your browser. To use your shapes in Blender, add the Droplet Forge add-on (a single .zip, drag it onto Blender).
Blender 4.2 or newer (tested on 5.1), on Windows, macOS and Linux.
No. Everything works without one. Sign in with Google only if you want to keep shapes in your account and open them in Blender's My Shapes gallery.
The live link between the bench and Blender runs only on your own computer (127.0.0.1). Only shapes you choose to save to My Shapes are stored online, and you can delete them, or your whole account, any time.
Yes. The browser runs a line-by-line port of the add-on's geometry engine, and both build the exact same quad mesh.
Safari blocks web pages from talking to apps on your computer, so use Chrome, Edge or Firefox for the live link. In Safari you can still save to My Shapes and open them from Blender, or open the copy of the bench that Blender serves itself.
Yes. Every setting can be keyframed. Start from a preset (realistic or exaggerated), run drops down a surface with gravity, or merge two drops. In Blender these are normal keyframes you can edit in the Graph Editor, and you can bake them to shape keys, a mesh sequence or Alembic. The bench exports MP4 or WebM video.
Yes. In Blender any mesh works. In the web bench, load a glTF, GLB, OBJ, STL or PLY file: it is read in your browser and never uploaded. Droplets sit on it, scatter over it and run down it.
From the bench: OBJ, glTF / GLB (with materials and animation), STL and PLY. From Blender: glTF, FBX, USD, Alembic, STL, OBJ and PLY in one click, with the right options set.
Yes. What you create is yours.
