After the download

Print it at home or order it

Open the STL in your slicer, or upload it to a print service if you don't have a printer.

Any FDM or resin printer works. Open the file in your slicer and press print.

No printer? Order it

Upload the STL to an online print service or a local print shop and get it delivered.

Birthdays, weddings, a thank-you for a teacher. Nobody else will have the same one.

Paint it

Print in grey and paint it, or print in colour if your printer can.

Behind the scenes

How this template works

Image Studio keeps your pet's breed, colours and markings and poses them peacefully (asleep, with wings or on a rainbow), then Image to 3D builds a figurine you can print.

Do it yourself for more control

  • Add a favourite toy, collar or blanket in the Image Studio prompt.
  • Use Add Base in Print Export for a wider plinth with room for their name.
  • Print it in a stone-look or marble filament for a timeless finish.

What is 3D AI Studio?

3D AI Studio is a web app that makes 3D models, images and sounds with AI. It runs in your browser, so there is nothing to install.

A template is a saved recipe. It runs a fixed set of AI tools with settings we've already tested, so all you add is a photo or a sentence.

Runs in your browserPhone or computer
Inside this template
  1. Step 1
    Image Studio

    Edits and redraws pictures with AI image models.

  2. Step 2
    Image to 3D

    Turns a single picture into a textured 3D model.

Your download

The files you get

STLThe standard file for 3D printers.

Open it in a slicer such as Bambu Studio, PrusaSlicer or Cura, then press print.

3MFA newer print file that also keeps size and colours.

Best for Bambu Lab and Prusa printers.

OBJA universal 3D file with its colour texture.

Opens in Blender and almost every 3D app.

Which photo to use

A photo like this works
  • A clear photo of the face matters most; older photos are fine.
  • Add a full-body photo so markings on the back and legs are right.
  • 8–10 cm is a lovely size for a shelf or windowsill.

Good to know: Very fine fur texture is simplified into soft sculpted shapes, which prints cleanly and feels gentle to hold.

MCP connector

  1. Connect the MCP once in your account settings. It's included in every paid plan.

Chat brief · Pet Memorial
Use the 3D AI Studio MCP to run the "Pet Memorial" template (https://www.3daistudio.com/templates/pet-memorial-figurine) for me.

My photo(s): I'll hand them over when you call upload_image.
Style: Sleeping
Base: Round

Follow these steps in order. The prompts and settings are the template's own, so use them word for word.

1. Get my photos
Call upload_image with purpose "Photo for the Pet Memorial template" so I can hand them over (images attached in the chat don't reach the MCP). I can upload up to 5 photos of the same subject; use all of them.

2. Design the memorial
Call edit_image_gpt with my uploaded photo(s) in images, quality "low", output_format "png" and this prompt:
"""
The reference photo(s) show one animal; that animal is the subject. Keep it completely intact: same species and breed, fur colours and markings, face, ears, tail and proportions. The face, skin, hair, eyes and fur are sculpted, painted and lit exactly like the rest of the figure, in the same style, material, level of detail and colours, so it reads as one object made at once. Never paste the photographic face onto the figure: no photo skin texture, no photo lighting, and no seam, edge or colour shift at the neck. If several photos are provided they all show the same subject from different angles or moments: merge them into ONE consistent figure and pick the clearest features. The photos may be cropped or show only the face or upper body: reconstruct the COMPLETE body anyway, from the top of the head to the feet or paws, including legs, feet, shoes, tail and all limbs, complete and believable at the proportions of the requested style, matching everything visible. Never crop, cut off or hide any part of the body, never show a bust or half figure, and do not leave anything outside the frame. Transform the animal into a gentle memorial figurine that celebrates it: peaceful and loving, never sad, keeping its breed, fur colours, markings, face and ears exactly. Chunky, sturdy, softly sculpted shapes with no thin fragile parts, on a round flat base. The entire figurine and base visible with generous empty margin, centered, three-quarter front view. Isolated on a seamless pure white (#FFFFFF) background, soft even studio lighting, no shadows on the background, no text, no writing on the base. Pose: curled up peacefully asleep on a soft round cushion, eyes closed, content.
"""

3. Build the 3D model
Call generate_prism_3_1 with the task_id of the image from step 2 in images, texture_model "3.5", texture_quality "fast", geometry_quality "standard", pbr false.

4. Export
Export it for printing: call convert_model on the 3D model with output_format "3mf" (or "stl" if I ask for it), plus max_size and unit "cm" if I gave you a print size.

After each generation call, keep polling get_generation with its task_id until it completes, then show me the result with show_generation before you start the next step.

Or automate it with the API

The same tools are available through the 3D AI Studio API. Call them from your own code to make hundreds at once, build them into your app or run them in your pipeline.

Yes. A clear face matters most; the template rebuilds the full body from what it can see. Several photos help with markings.

The figurine has no text, so the name stays crisp. Add a base with Add Base in Print Export and engrave or paint the name.

Yes: dogs, cats, rabbits, horses and birds all work. Pick the pose that feels right to you.
