Creating 3D hentai has been getting easier and easier over the years. In the past, creating a decent looking human model in CGI was next to impossible. It took a skilled artist several months, if not longer, and the results often left much to be desired. Then came along software like Daz Studio from Daz 3D and Poser from Smith Micro. Software of this type, while crude in earlier versions, eventually put the power of near photorealistic human characters in the hands of the people. Now just about anyone can create fairly convincing 3D hentai, as evidenced by the vast number of galleries out there in the wired.
Daz really changed the 3D art world with the introduction of an easily customizable, manga influenced, 3D human figure by the name of Aiko. While their pages may not qualify as 3D hentai galleries, they show off the beauty and potential of the character. She instantly became popular in the world of doujin circles because she could be used for just about anything and in any way. With the incredbile library of costumes available for the figure, artists were creating images and putting up 3D hentai galleries all over the web. While some artists, both in Japan and in the west, still pride themselves on their ability to scratch build human figures in the more expensive 3D software packages, the vast amount of 3D hentai art on the web, some of it quite amazing, shows that the playing field is being leveled.
