I asked Chatgpt to make me a figure of action so that I can overcome the wave of the viral trend IA, and now I don’t care about my buttocks. Wow, he delivered it. This turned me into a tight leather rock star figurine, suitable for 4 years and over.
The funny trend in action figures has developed on social networks in recent days. It is also called the “Barbie Box” trend. It is difficult to determine the origin, but you probably see your friends, family and colleagues share images of themselves redesigned like packaged toys.
Here’s how to use an AI chatbot to create an image of your own image, and how to print it 3D so that you can really have this personalized action figure in real life.
How to make your figurine ai
Step 1: Pape on Chatgpt, which now offers a free generation of images for everyone. I asked Chatgpt how many images it would allow me to do for free, and he said he would do up to 15 per day. After that, the generation of images stops to take a break for free users until the limit is reset.
Step 2: I questioned Chatgpt to get advice on how to make me an action figure, and he asked for a photo of the body. You can download images from the “Ask anything” box. I found a not very clear photo of my photo archives and sent it. Quite well, I said to myself.

This is the complete image with which I gave Chatgpt to work.
Step 3: The IA service asked me for preferences for the outfit or costume, installation or expression, accessories or weapons, name or title for the action figure and the style of packaging – such as retro, modern or comic inspiration. You can be as detailed or vague as you wish. I went with a wave: “I would like my outfit looks like a rock star with a rocking pose, a guitar and a retro packaging style.”
Step 4: Wait, then share. He can take chatgpt for a few moments to generate your figurine. If you like what you see, go for it and download it and explode it to your social.
Here is the full glory of my AI action figurine.
Step 5 (optional): If Chatgpt does not close it quite, ask for adjustments. I tried a new version with blue jeans and a pink telecasttery guitar. He delivered, but forgot the part of the action figure and the new image still seemed to be deleted from my facial appearance. A third adjustment took me to Billy Idol territory when I asked for thorny blond hair. The leg of my action personality found itself outside the “plastic” packaging window. I tried.
It doesn’t look like me.
Do not expect perfection. The more I asked for changes, the more it has become the strangest. Finally, Chatgpt transformed me into a jon good juice with three fingers on my left hand playing a guitar with seven strings.
3D Printing of your creation
Our CNET 3D printing expert resident James Bricknell pushed this craze a little further and, using intelligent AI technology, one of these chatgpt images. It is here to explain the process.
As soon as I saw the first chatgpt action figure image, I knew that I wanted to create a 3D printed version. Transforming an image into a 3D model can be complicated, sometimes Implying large platforms and a lot of smart software, but the latest IA advances mean that creating something simple and fun is much easier. When the editor -in -chief of CNET at Large Scott Stein published his figure On the wires, I thought it was a good starting point.
Step 1: Image edition. Your first image is likely to be a figure in a pack of blisters. It looks incredible, but a large part of the excess art will not result in 3D printing. You will have to turn on as many foreign materials as possible, focusing on the model with a united background if possible.
You can see that you must modify the image even more to get a good 3D rendering. I had to trace a line between the glasses and the Scott eyebrows so that the modeling software can recognize them as two distinct objects.
Step 2: Access Maker World’s Maker Lab. Bambu Lab manufactures some of the best 3D printers available today, and it has an excellent website to find 3D models to print. Manufacturer’s world To a tab called Maker Lab, where the company has a multitude of interesting AI projects.
The one we want is at the bottom, called Image to the 3D model. You will need to create a connection to use this feature, but it is free to register.
Step 3: Import your image. Once you have clicked on the To try he Button, you will be asked to download the referral image from the first step. When you do, AI will start to create something 3D printable. It takes a few minutes and may not give you the perfect image during your first try. If you don’t like the output, you can try a different image or delete the background from your image to burst the model.
This process costs global credits for creators, but you start with some as part of your registration. Fortunately, you only pay for credit when you download the finished model. This means that you are free to try several different rendering to do things well. When you are happy, click export To download the model.
Step 4: Import to your slicer. The downloaded file has a .obj file format, which is recognized by almost all 3D printing slices. I used the Bambu Lab bambu studio, but you can use Prusa Slicer or any other slicer for your specific 3D printer. Most slicers have a repair function and it can take the trouble to pass your model. I have not encountered any error on my tests, but it is better to be sure.
If you have a printer with a color system, now is the time to paint the desired colors on your model. If you don’t, it will simply print as a single color object.
Note: Your model may not have flat feet. I noticed that this model did not do it, so I had to make sure that the supports were active on the soles of its feet to keep it standing.
Step 5: Send your model to the 3D printer. Once you have done all the other steps, it’s time to print. I used the new Bambu Lab H2D and it took a little more than 11 hours to get a 3D color printing. A single-color print would take much less time. I also increased the size of the model by 150%because the manufacturer’s world production was quite low.
You can see that I used a lot of support to make sure that his arms and glasses were not broken in the printing process. At this point, you can start thinking about potential accessories. I printed a small VR helmet to go with the Skott silhouette that I stuck by hand. I think it has rounded him off.
Step 6: Present yourself in the presence of your new mini-me. That’s it. You now have a small action figure based on your chatgpt image. It did not take long, and the use of Maker Lab, AI allowed you to potentially save hundreds of hours to learn to model it yourself. It’s not perfect, however. A professional 3D modeler could do a much better work and make it articulate to start. But for a small fun project, it’s excellent.
