3D Paint Coming soon

Your photo, painted in layers of filament

Not just an AI picture: 3D Paint builds a real, printable 3D model whose thin layers of translucent filament blend into the colours of your photo. Our own technology plans every layer and every swap for the spools you own.

  • 5 credits per AI painting

3D model, layer by layer

This is a real, printable 3D model, not a picture: its height changes from spot to spot, and thin layers of translucent filament blend into colours as it grows.

    FAQ

    3D Paint questions

    How does 3D Paint work?

    3D Paint is our own filament-painting technology, developed in-house. It builds a 3D model whose height changes from spot to spot and plans thin layers of translucent filament, so that they blend into the colours of your picture. Then it tells you when to swap each spool.

    Which filaments do I need?

    The ones you already have. Pick a ready set such as Bambu Lab Basic or CMYK, or choose your own spools, and we plan the layers for them. Four or five colours, from dark to light, work well.

    Which printers can print it?

    Any FDM printer that can pause to change filament: Bambu Lab, Prusa, Creality and others. With an AMS or another multi-material unit the swaps happen by themselves; otherwise the printer pauses and you swap the spool by hand.
