Arcane Grimoires Vol.1 — Animated 3D Spellbooks
Three fictional spellbooks as animated 3D models (GLB) for fantasy and RPG games, VRChat worlds, Blender scenes, tabletop streams, video intros and wizard's-desk renders. Each book opens, turns every page with bending paper, and closes.
The three books
Each volume has a leather cover with brass corners and a gilt magic-circle emblem, and 18 pages of aged parchment with readable fictional spell text written for this pack and a magic circle illustration for each chapter.
The Hexbound Codex
Halloween: wards, hexes and lunar rites. Brown leather.
The Celestial Almanac
Star charts, eclipses and comet lore. Midnight-blue leather.
The Elemental Grimoire
Fire, frost, storm and root. Green leather.
