Free Online PNG to SKP Converter

With our PNG to SKP converter, you can effortlessly convert your PNG image file into a 3D heightmap model, which can then be loaded into your favourite 3D editing software. Our image to SKP tool can batch convert up to 20 PNG files at one time and quickly turn them into 3D models.

Select File(s)

Or drag and drop your files here to upload.
A maximum of 20 files can be uploaded at once.

Please note: Your PNG file, once uploaded to our server, will be deleted 15 minutes after upload, so please download your converted PNG file before this time.

Our PNG to SKP image conversion tool comes with a set of options allowing you to fine-tune the details of how the 3D model is generated. Once you have selected a file, you will see a button, which you can click to reveal adjustable properties such as whether the tool should use a Heightmap or Extrude algorithm to create the 3D model. There are also properties to control the size and detail of the model.

How long does it take to convert my PNG to SKP?

We aim to process all PNG to SKP conversions as quickly as possible; this usually takes around 5 seconds; however, this can be longer for certain files, so please be patient.

How accurate is the PNG to SKP conversion?

We aim to provide the best conversion experience. Our tools are under constant review and development, with new features being added every week.

How is the 3D model generated from my PNG image?

Our tool uses a Heightmap process whereby the SKP 3D model is created based on the luminosity of the individual pixels in your PNG image.

Is there a limit to the size of my image?

Yes, to ensure our tool converts the PNG image quickly and with a reasonable final file size, your tool will resize any image larger than 600x600 pixels.

File format information for PNG and SKP

Extension	PNG

PNG files are a widely used graphics file format used in areas where high-quality images (often with transparency) are required while also retaining a small file size. They are one of the most common formats of file used for web and print mediums and are particularly useful for logos, icons, and other images where multi-level transparency is desired.

The format itself was created in the 1990's with the main aim of storing computer graphics in a high-quality format while minimizing the required storage space. The longer-term aim was to displace the GIF file format and make PNG the number one format for non-lossy, high-quality image formats on the then-burgeoning world wide web.

One of the selling points of the PNG format is its support for multiple levels of transparency, making it superior to the GIF format, which can only handle a single level of transparency. Also, like GIFs, the PNG format supports palletizing image colours down to 256 or 16 colours to help reduce the file size of the PNG.

Extension	SKP
Full Name	SketchUp
Type	3D Model
Mime Type	application/octet-stream
Format	Binary

A SKP file is the native file format for the popular SketchUp 3D modelling application. SketchUp is a growing platform, popular with industrial architechs and 3D design enthusiasts alike who like the ease with which complex 3D models can be produced.

The SKP format is capable of storing complex 3D models and their associated geometric data, such as vertices, edges, faces, materials, and much more. The format is well supported, and it receives updates containing new features on a regular basis.

Due to its popularity, the SKP format is supported by many 3D modelling applications via an import option, and where an import option may be missing, our own SKP conversion tools can convert to and from the most popular 3D formats.

Information for converting from PNG to SKP

Our PNG converter will convert your PNG file to a 3D model using the Heightmap process, whereby 2D pixels, based on their luminosity, are converted into 3D space to create a full 3D SKP model ready for download for further processing in your favourite 3D editing package or for printing on a 3D printer.
