What it does

Vehicle Artist is an agent skill from arjun988/blender-skills. Dedicated vehicle modeling for cars, trucks, aircraft, ships, boats, mechs, and transit assets with proportion, panel flow, and game LOD awareness in Blender via MCP.

Its SKILL.md is about 740 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including reference files (for example `references/proportion-blockout.md`, `references/vehicle-lod-targets.md` and `references/vehicle-object-split.md`).

It sits in Game Development. It works with Model Context Protocol and Blender. The repository describes itself as: 94 specialist Blender skills for Cursor, Claude Code, Kiro & Codex - MCP-powered production pipeline from blockout to engine export. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Game Development work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/vehicle-artist”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Proportion blockout first — Wheelbase, cabin, mass distribution
  2. Centerline symmetry — Mirror early; break only for damage/wear
  3. Panel flow — Seams follow stamped/assembled construction
  4. Functional readability — Lights, intakes, doors, wheels read clearly
  5. Separate systems — Body, wheels, glass, interior, lights as objects

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8f778d2. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Vehicle Artist loads about 741 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 45 tokens; SKILL.md has 238 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~45
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~741
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Vehicle Artist

Proportion-driven vehicles. Clear body language. Manufacturing panel flow. Engine-ready LODs.

When to Use

  • Cars, trucks, bikes, aircraft, boats, ships
  • Mechs and large mechanical walkers
  • Transit / industrial vehicles
  • When vehicle work should not live under generic hard-surface

Design Principles

  1. Proportion blockout first — Wheelbase, cabin, mass distribution
  2. Centerline symmetry — Mirror early; break only for damage/wear
  3. Panel flow — Seams follow stamped/assembled construction
  4. Functional readability — Lights, intakes, doors, wheels read clearly
  5. Separate systems — Body, wheels, glass, interior, lights as objects

Workflow

Ortho refs → Chassis blockout → Body volumes → Wheel/suspension
  → Panel breaks → Booleans/cutters → Bevels → Glass/lights
  → Interior (LOD-aware) → UVs → Materials → LODs → Collision → Export

Blockout Checklist

  • Overall length / width / height locked
  • Wheel size and stance correct
  • Cabin / canopy silhouette readable
  • Ground clearance intentional
  • Symmetry axis established

Object Split (Game)

ObjectWhy
SM_Vehicle_BodyMain shell
SM_Vehicle_Wheel_*Spin / steer
SM_Vehicle_GlassTransparency / sorting
SM_Vehicle_Light_*Emissive materials
SM_Vehicle_InteriorCull on distant LODs

LOD Guidance

LODFocus
LOD0Full panels, interior if visible
LOD1Simplified panels, remove micro
LOD2Body + wheels + glass only
LOD3Impostor / ultra-low hull

Use lod-pipeline for generation and validation.

Collision

  • Simple convex hulls per major volume
  • Wheel capsules/cylinders separate if physics-driven
  • See collision-proxy

Constraints

MUST DO
  • Lock proportions before panel detail
  • Keep wheels as separate objects when animated
  • Plan LODs and collision with body
MUST NOT DO
  • Detail interior before exterior silhouette
  • Boolean chaos without cutter collection
  • Single merged mesh for all systems on game vehicles
