you can set up your scene with cameras positioned at the discrete points of view youll view the characters from and render every angle for every animation at the same time.

Go to meshy.com// proompt your characters // upload them to mixamo and rig them // ??? /// profit??

meshy.com seems to be defunct?
I understand mixamo can rig/animate 3D characters. But the rendering (in Blender or similar) still needs to be done, no?
I for the moment don’t really mind using completely pre-made 3D assets, at least I tell myself that I would find fitting stuff on the marketplace if I looked. My concern is the generation of the spritesheets.

Oh i was also trying to do something like that.
If i understand correctly the basics are like:

Set the camera on blender to point directly at the center from a certain angle, this helps i guess
https://blender.stackexchange.com/questions/135306/setting-up-an-isometric-view

Mess around with a cube until it has the angles and proportions of a proper iso cube.

Then put actual model here.

Set the background to transparent and output them as images in a format that supports transparency, you're gonna need the same animation in 8 directions like this https://cnc.fandom.com/wiki/Tesla_trooper_(Red_Alert_2)?file=Tesla_Trooper_animation.gif

You can do this manually and then develop severe suicidal urges like me, or i think you can automatize it with imageMagick.

As for the "retro look" you can mess around with the lighting/mats/shaders in cycles/Eevee or try to use an older engine, here i tried with povray, but it's utterly painful since you can't assign multiple materials to the same model so you need to do shit like parenting separated parts or use image textures.

As you can see i failed miserably but maybe this can help.

See if these links are of any use.

Not really :/

Sick, thanks a lot. It seems not everyone is producing the file format this tool requires (FBX with embedded textures), but I am able to at least generate something. Now to hunt for models.

Thank you, this is very interesting. The tank is looking formidable.
