How it works

Three steps, start to shelf

No app to download, no special gear. If you can take a video, you can make a Paintlin. Here's exactly what happens between your phone and your shelf.

  1. 1

    Scan it

    Grab any phone and take a slow, steady video all the way around your subject. Our quick filming guide shows you how to nail it the first time. Good light and a plain background are the only tricks.

  2. 2

    We rebuild it in 3D

    Our pipeline rebuilds your video into a true-to-life 3D model. We clean it up by hand, check it before we print, then run it in tough, kid-safe PLA — primed bright white and ready for paint.

  3. 3

    You paint it

    Open the kit, dip a brush, and bring your little friend to life. There's no wrong way to do it — that's the whole point.

From your video… to a 3D print… to your paint job

We rebuild your thing in 3D and hand it back primed bright white — the paint is where it becomes yours.

Two ways to play

One little workshop, whether you're four or forty-four.

For little hands

A tiny twin of the bear that goes everywhere

Paint it together on a rainy afternoon. Make a couple, so one can travel and one stays safe. And quietly — keep a backup of the lovey that could never be replaced.

  • Their actual favorite, made mini
  • Non-toxic paints, made for small hands
  • Wrapped in premium packaging, ready for the big reveal

For makers

Scan anything. Paint it your way.

Your sleeping cat. The gargoyle you thrifted. That garage-sale figurine. Your own face. Get it bare to prime and paint however you like — or as a full kit. Multipacks for the whole squad.

  • Bare figures — bring your own paints
  • Pocket-size up to centerpiece
  • Multipacks for armies, sets & gifts

What lands on your doorstep

Everything you need for one very good afternoon — nothing you have to go buy.

  • Your figurine, 3D-printed and primed bright white
  • A pot-set of acrylics — non-toxic, ready to mix
  • Two brushes — a fine tip and a broad — plus a painting sponge and a little palette
  • A reference card of your original, for color-matching
  • Premium packaging — tissue, box, the works
