From digital artworkArtwork to print
From flat art to something you can hold
Zeus began as a piece of digital art. These are the real steps from that picture to the finished print.

01 · Your art
Start with art that's yours
A drawing, painting or character sheet, scanned or shot straight on.

02 · The 3D model
Turn it, size it, see the price
We build a solid 3D model. You check every angle and the exact price.

03 · On the printer
Printed with tree supports
Supports hold his arms and robe as he prints. We take them off by hand.

04 · The print
One solid piece, ready to paint
One colour of PLA, ready for a shelf or a brush. Posted NZ-wide.
What it costs
Pick a size, see the exact price
Small suits the tabletop, medium and up suit the shelf. Within a size, a chunky character costs a little more than a slender one, because it uses more material and printer time.
Small
up to ~6 cm
$11–23
Palm-sized - keyrings, tokens, small figures.

Medium

Real example: Zeus. At 20 cm tall he is XL height, but slender, so he prices as a Large. Large prints are $41–66.

Ideas for your art
From kids' drawings to D&D characters
- Kids' drawings: the monster from the fridge door, wonky arms and all
- D&D and tabletop heroes, from a character portrait or a paid commission
- Robots, spaceships and creatures from your own sketchbook
- Mascots your club, school or business owns
Whose art?
Your art, or art you have the rights to
We print art that's yours to print: your own drawings and paintings, your D&D character, the mascot your club owns. Commissions you've paid for count too, as long as the artist is happy for them to become a print. If someone else made it, you need their permission first.
Fan art is the tricky one: even if you drew it, a character from a film, game, comic or anime belongs to its creator, so we need their permission too. We review every order before it prints, and the full rules are in our content policy.
Before you upload
What artwork works best
Works best
- One character, with the whole figure in view
- Front-on or three-quarter view
- Clear outlines and solid shapes
- A sharp scan, or a straight-on photo of the page
Avoid
- Side-on poses: they can come out thin
- Several characters in one picture
- Hands, feet or wings cut off at the edge
- Glare, shadows or a tilted page
Every model is checked to be properly solid before you see it, and nothing prints until you approve it.
Artwork to figurine FAQ
Can you really 3D print a drawing?
Yes. Upload a clear photo or scan of the artwork and our 3D engine builds a solid, printable figure from it. You preview the 3D model from every angle before anything is printed. Making each 3D model uses generation credits - signing up covers your first 4 models free, then credit packs start at $12. The size price is for the print itself, and nothing is printed until you approve the model.
What artwork works best?
A single character, drawn front-on or three-quarter view, with clear outlines and the whole figure visible. Flat side-on art can come out thin - our system checks every model is properly solid before you see it, and regenerates it if it isn't. Busy backgrounds are usually fine, because we cut the character out first, but plain paper or a flat colour behind the figure gives the cleanest result.
Can you print my child's drawing?
Yes, and it makes a lovely gift: a kid's monster or superhero, turned into something they can hold. The 3D engine works from the shapes in the drawing, so quirks like wonky arms and huge eyes tend to come through, and you see the model from every angle before you pay for the print. Bold, simple drawings with the whole character on the page work best.
Can you print my D&D character or game character?
If it's your art (or art you commissioned and have rights to), yes - upload the character sheet portrait or commission and we'll build the mini or display piece. We review every order and may decline art that belongs to someone else - franchise characters and other artists' work need their permission.
Can you 3D print fan art?
Only when the character is yours to print. Even if you drew it yourself, a character from a film, game, comic or anime belongs to whoever created it, so we can't print it without the rights holder's permission. Characters you invented yourself are welcome.
Will it work as a tabletop mini?
It can. Small prints ($11–23) suit the tabletop. We print in PLA rather than resin, so at mini scale the finest details, like fingers and buckles, soften. Medium and up show far more of your character.
What sizes and prices?
Pricing is by size: small $11–23, medium $23–41, large $41–66, xl from $66. Shipping is added at checkout and depends on where it's going. A small print makes a tabletop-friendly piece; medium and up suit the shelf. Multi-colour prints add a surcharge - your exact price is always shown before you pay.
I already have a 3D model of my character - can you just print it?
Yes - switch to file upload and send the STL, OBJ, 3MF, GLB or PLY. We print it as-is at the size you choose, with the exact price shown for your actual model before you pay.
Does it print in colour?
By default each piece prints in one solid colour of your choice from eight, like an unpainted sculpture. In the studio you can also split a model into a few solid colour bands (a beta feature that adds a surcharge), but it's never painted or full colour. You can paint yours afterwards; standard PLA takes acrylics well after a light prime.
Is my artwork kept private?
Your artwork is used for two things only: an automated safety check and making your 3D model. We don't train any AI on it and don't let anyone else do so. We never sell your art or share it publicly without your permission; the details are in our privacy policy.
Ready to hold your art?
