Could you build this?
Partial Building an Electron or web-based 2D mesh editor is feasible, but automated 2D mesh generation, skeletal rigging, and skinning from a single static illustration require advanced computer graphics algorithms.
What it would actually take: Likely built with WebGL/Three.js or PixiJS in a desktop wrapper (Tauri/Electron), coupled with a vision model pipeline (like Segment Anything for asset layering) and Delaunay triangulation / constrained Delaunay meshing. The difficult part is automated depth/layer separation, non-overlapping mesh decomposition, and inverse kinematics rigging from a single 2D image. Requires computer vision and graphics programming expertise.
