This repository contains a variety of meshes and associated data that are useful for examples in computer graphics.

My goal with this repository is to provide meshes with only minimal licensing requirements (such as attribution or attribution/nonprofit). Every object comes with an attribution, as well as a mention of the license under which it was originally released. They can be found in the README.md file in the folder of each object.

Here is a simple overview of all meshes in this repository. Some meshes have multiple versions (with and without boundary, high-res/low-res, etc.), so make sure to check out each one individually. The manifold information is not completely reliable, at the moment it only checks edge manifoldness.
