Abstract

This paper aims to controllably generate and edit layered 3D characters based on hand-drawing. Existing methods rely on global optimization or entangled representations, limiting fine-grained local editing and clothing replacement. To address this, we propose an innovative sketch-based method for layered 3D character generation and part-level editing. Our approach introduces a sketch-to-3D decoupled generation network for fine-grained layered control and a progressive upsampling module that enhances texture quality and complex geometric structures. Extensive experiments on public datasets and in-the-wild data demonstrate our method effectively generates high-quality layered 3D characters while supporting precise local editing through hand-drawn sketches. The code will be available at http://cic.tju.edu.cn/faculty/likun/projects/DreamCoser.
