Easy Signpost – Stylized Wooden Sign Generator
Build charming anime / cartoon wooden signposts in seconds. Arrows, hanging signs, rope-and-nail ovals, grapevines, snow, cracks and algae are all adjustable live, then baked and exported as a GLB.
Easy Signpost creates complete stylized signposts with one click. Pick a preset, tweak the sliders, type your text, and export. It suits cozy village and farm scenes, stylized games, animation and illustration.
- 16 ready-made presets with Snow and Vine variants: Crossed Arrows, Double Arrow, Single Arrow, Plain Board, Wobbly Board, Two-Post Board, Hanging Sign, Bracket Sign, Oval + Plank, Oval Rope Sign, Vine Board, Grape Vine, Snowy Arrows, Pastel Ribbons, Cream Arrows and Cracked Board. The Random Signpost button rolls through 45 preset variants.
- 4 mount types: Single Post, Two Posts, Hanging Beam (with an optional flat, braced end for fixing against a wall) and Rope & Nail (V rope or straight rope links between boards).
- Real-time editing. Every slider rebuilds the sign instantly, and a small reset button next to each group puts just that group back to its defaults.
Features
Boards
- 6 board styles: Rectangle, Arrow, Pill, Oval, Ribbon and Wobbly Blob.
- Stack any number of boards, and reorder, duplicate or remove them in a list.
- Per-board controls: length, height, thickness, arrow tip / ribbon notch, head flare, corner radius, hand-cut wobble, bend, rotation, tilt, slide, height offset and color.
- “Cross Previous” layers a board in front of the one above it, for crossed-arrow signs.
- 3D text with a custom font, size, depth and color. It fits itself to the board, even when another board overlaps it.
Post, Nails & Base
- Post controls: height, width, sides (square to round), taper, top shape (flat, chamfer, dome, pointed), bevel, crooked wobble, sink depth and lean. Boards, vines and snow follow the post’s bend.
- Nails in 4 placement modes (board ends, at post, cross point, at ropes), with size and distance controls.
- Ground bases: grass tufts, stones, dirt mound and snow mound.
Vines
- Three independent vine groups (post / beam, ropes, boards), each with its own range, turns, leaves, fruit, tendrils and scale.
- 4 vine types: Fruit Leafy, Fruit, Grape (lobed leaves, curly tendrils, hanging bunches) and Grape Leafy.
- Vines can climb right round the outline of a board, and leaves rest naturally on the board face.
- Use your own mesh objects as the Leaf, Fruit or Grape model.
Weathering
- Cracks: real notches cut into the board edge, surface lines, or both. Length, width, zigzag, wander and direction are adjustable.
- Snow on boards and post: height, drips, arch, corner roundness and color.
- Algae on the post, boards and ropes. It grows up from the bottom, with adjustable climb height, patch scale, edge softness and two colors.
- Procedural wood grain and surface patterns, so no external textures are needed.
Export
- Mark Seams & UV unwraps and packs the UVs into a separate UV map, so your materials look the same afterwards. A progress bar shows the job.
- Export GLB bakes all materials into a texture (512 to 4096 px) and exports a clean .glb for any engine that imports glTF, such as Godot, Unity or Unreal.
