Introducing the 3DT Japanese Lantern Pack for Blender & Game Design | Stylized 3D Asset Pack

Hey everyone, Luke here from 3D Tudor! Today, I’m thrilled to introduce the 3DT Japanese Lantern Pack – a lovingly crafted collection of stylized lanterns designed to infuse your 3D environments with warmth, cultural richness, and beautiful light-play.

This gorgeous lantern pack was created by Rowan from BearworX 3D as part of our Starving Artist Campaign – a 3D Tudor initiative that empowers emerging artists to launch their work and keep 50% of the revenue.

👉 When you purchase this pack, you’re not only enhancing your creative toolbox, you’re also helping an independent artist grow.

Remember Rowan's '3DT Asian Farm Tool Pack for Blender, Unreal Engine & Game Design | 3D Asset Pack'?

You might remember Rowan from his popular Asian Farm Tool Pack, which featured rustic stylized carts and farm props. With this release, he turns his attention to light, texture, and tradition through hand-painted Japanese lanterns that glow with artistry and soul.

🔥 Why Choose the 3DT Japanese Lantern Pack?
