Designed for the printer, not just the screen
A 3D model that looks right on screen still has to print well. Our in-house design studio prepares every piece for real 3D printing:
- Real sizes: you choose the height in centimetres.
- Figures get a base that stands; keychains and magnets get their loop or magnet pocket.
- Thin parts are checked so they print cleanly and hold.
- Colours come from the filament, up to 16, never from paint.
- Each model is repaired and prepared as a print-ready file before it reaches our printers.

We kept the choices you made earlier on this device, for 24 hours. Your photos and contact details are never kept.
Step 1 of 5
What would you like us to make?
Choose a piece. Next you’ll pick its size and colours, then add your photos.
Illustrations, not photos of the printed piece.
Questions before you start?
Quick answers
Tap a question. Each answer is written by our team.
Bright, sharp photos where the subject fills most of the picture: one from the front, and one from the side if you have it. When you add a photo, we check its size, sharpness and light here in your browser and give you a tip if it could be better. A tip never stops your request.
Bigger pieces are possible, within what our printers make well:
- with up to 4 colours, up to about 32 cm tall;
- with up to 8 colours, up to about 25 cm tall;
Sizes bigger than the ones above are priced by our team, by hand.
Added to your request as “Needed by”.
No. We print in multicolour plastic (FDM with an automatic multi-material system). Nothing is hand painted and nothing is resin.
Yes, as a personal one-off piece made for you. We don’t sell it or show it publicly.
That’s fine. On the photo step we ask who is in the photos. For a child under 14, a parent or legal guardian gives consent; for someone aged 14 to 17, that person or their parent or guardian does. We keep these photos for a shorter time and never use them in our marketing.
Yes. Choose “Bobblehead” among the figures: a 12 cm figure whose head bobs on a 3D-printed PETG spring, designed by our team with you. One person per bobblehead; for a couple or a group, our team quotes the project.

Size and colours
Pick a size and a colour plan. The price updates as you choose.
What you’ll receive
- Printed in Laval, Quebec, on our FDM printers, in 4 to 16 filament colours. The colour is the filament itself: nothing is painted.
- Up close, fine layer lines and small marks are part of the charm of FDM printing. We make every piece as well as it can be made.
- Plant-based PLA, made to order, so there is very little waste. The scraps left over from printing are recycled into our own filament.
- A display collectible for ages 14 and up, not a toy.
Planned for 2027: a premium resin + UV line, with barely visible layer lines and up to 1 million colours. Stay tuned.

Your photos and idea
Clear photos and a short description help us get the likeness right.
Your photos
Photos that work best
- A clear front view and a three-quarter view
- Good, even light — daylight is ideal
- The whole subject in frame, outfit included
Please avoid
- Filters, sunglasses and hats that hide the face
- Blurry, very dark or tiny photos
or drop them here
Up to 4 photos · JPEG, PNG, WebP or HEIC · up to 15 MB each
A clear photo helps us capture the likeness. You can still continue without one and describe it in words.
Describe the pose, outfit, expression and colours. Mention anything we must keep — and anything to leave out.
Optional. If it’s for a date, tell us: we’ll say with your concept and price whether we can make it.

What your $7.95 CAD AI design fee covers
AI design fee: $7.95 CAD + applicable taxes
- What you get: one AI-assisted custom design from your photos and description. You receive a concept image to approve, then an on-screen 3D preview that a member of our team checks before you see it. No downloadable 3D file is provided.
- When: we aim to deliver your concept and preview within 1–2 business days of payment, and no later than 5 business days. If we miss that limit, we refund you automatically.
- If something goes wrong on our side: if our system or a supplier fails and we can’t deliver a usable preview, we refund the full amount paid, taxes included.
- Changes included: 1 on your concept and 1 on your 3D preview (two separate allowances). You can also switch to a Human-Assisted design at any time.
- Credit toward your print: order the print within 30 days of receiving your preview, and the full $7.95 CAD, plus the taxes you paid on it, is credited to that order as a payment.
- Not refundable once delivered: once a usable preview has been delivered, the fee pays for the design work done and is not refundable. After 30 days the credit ends.
- Previews are approximate. Colours, fine details and proportions on screen can differ from the printed object.
$7.95 CAD + applicable taxes
Taxes are calculated at checkout from your billing address.
