Claim One:
1. A method, comprising: rendering a view of a portion of a three-dimensional (3D) object data model of an object based on material properties associated with the portion, wherein the 3D object data model comprises material properties associated with geometry of the 3D object data model; determining, using a computing device, a first appearance metric between an appearance of the portion in the rendered view and an appearance of the portion in a two-dimensional (2D) image by comparing the appearance of the portion in the rendered view with the appearance of the portion in the 2D image; for one or more iterations: based on the first appearance metric, determining a modification to one or more of the material properties associated with the portion; rendering another view of the portion of the 3D object data model based on the modification to the material properties associated with the portion; and determining, using the computing device, another appearance metric between an appearance of the portion in the 2D image and an appearance of the portion in the rendered another view; and storing the 3D object data model of the object having modified material properties for the portion, wherein the modified material properties are associated with a minimum appearance metric of the one or more iterations.
