Just turned our dog into a custom collectible figure for my daughter.

The process started with a stylized Peaky Blinders-inspired Bichon character concept, which was then generated with Rodin Gen-2.5.

After generating the model, it was exported, brought into a slicer, colored, adjusted for printing, and sent to the printer.

The final figure came out much better than expected, and we love it so much!

I drew a pretty complex illustration just to see if AI could really understand my style.
I tried it with Rodin Gen-2.5, and the result honestly surprised me. It reconstructed the lower vehicle structure much better than I expected, and the whole generation process was fast too.

My workflow was basically: sketch the idea, clean up the lines, add colors, upload the image, generate the model and textures, then bring everything into Nomad for final lighting and rendering.

These two characters both started as base meshes generated with Rodin Gen-2.5, and I refined them into the final versions.

After getting the initial generations, I mostly focused on cleaning up a few awkward structures, smoothing some transitions, and adjusting the overall silhouettes.

Compared to the original outputs, the final models aren’t drastically different. I didn’t have to rebuild the major forms, just polish and refine what was already there.
