Pixlhut creates compelling imagery from design or CAD data. We create and assign textures and materials, develop lighting, and composite 2D and 3D backgrounds. We have a staff of on-site designers and math modelers that work with Catia, NX, and Alias.


We create photorealistic imagery from 3D data and composite the image into real backgrounds seamlessly. This is helpful for hard to photograph or unavailable subjects.

This image displays our modeling capabilities, along with rendering and retouching.  Sometimes hoses don’t transfer within the CAD file and need to be modeled from photo reference.

Another representation of our modeling capabilities. Holy hoses!  In addition, tire tread textures were modeled on each tire.

Pixlhut’s artists can create cut-away images and animations, revealing internals.

Here’s a HERO image of a Detroit Diesel engine created from CAD.  The beautifully designed background was created by one of our renowned retoucher’s.

This Detroit Diesel engine animation showcases our camera flight and lensing, motion graphics, cut-away and sound design capabilities. This too was generated from CAD data.


This Freightliner Cascadia was created from CAD data provided by the client.  The beautifully designed background was created by one of our talented illustrators.

We can combine multiple images photographed in different environments into one realistic composite thanks to our amazing retouching team!

Created for Dodge trucks, this cobbling took a lot of imagination and time but it was worth the result.


If you would like to reveal internals of any component, our artists have the ability to do so.  This is enhanced with a cool blue effect in retouching.

Another great representation of our rendering and retouching capabilities and enhanced with a cool blue effect in retouching.


One of my favorites.  This showcases another application we are capable of by revealing the entire powertrain through a ghosted outline.


This boat was generated from a client provided wireframe.  All materials and textures were created from photo reference. The water is completely generated in 3D.

We combined this Porsche Panamera data with a supplied photographic background and added lighting and motion effects.
