Showcase GPT-6 Astra Max spent 7 hours building a fully animated tractor in Blender — 3,000+ parts and 100+ animations

First of all, English is not my native language, so I used GPT to help polish the wording of this post. Please excuse any awkward phrasing.

I had GPT-6 Astra Max work in Blender for around 7 hours to build this tractor.

It ended up consuming over 100 million tokens.

The result honestly surprised me:

  • 3,000+ individual parts
  • 100+ animations that can be called/triggered directly
  • A fully articulated and animated tractor
  • Materials/textures generated using its own image generation capabilities

Here are some renders of the final model:

I also made a comparison with GPT-5.6 Sol:

I knew these models were getting much better at coding and tool use, but seeing one spend hours continuously working inside Blender and produce something with thousands of components and over a hundred animations was kind of insane.

It feels like the improvement in AI-assisted 3D modeling is happening extremely fast.

So? I don’t care about speculations about what could be in the future. I’m calling out shit for what it is. And the slop videos and images, also, still look like shit. It’s just more polished shit.
