Studio is a tool for generating and customizing 3D models inside STLAI. Turn a photo into a 3D model, use a 3D file you already have or pick a model from the library, then customize it with tools such as keychain, magnet, text and paint. It is available to STLAI subscribers in Brazil and outside Brazil.
Studio is a beta product. STLFLIX is continuously developing it, and your feedback is welcome: it helps prioritize the next improvements.
Getting started
When you open Studio, you choose one of three paths:
Turn a photo into 3D (Image to 3D).
Use a 3D file you already have.
Explore a model from the STLFLIX library to edit.
Image to 3D
Upload a photo and choose a style (such as cartoon) or keep it without a style. You can also add a text with extra instructions, for example uploading a photo of a face and asking for a full-body version. After generating, you see a preview of the model to confirm before the final generation. Each generation uses STLAI credits, the same way as the platform's other generations.
Your saved models
Studio's own library gathers the models you have already generated or edited (different from the STLFLIX model library). You can download a model as it is or load a saved model to keep editing where you left off.
Customization tools
Keychain, pendant and fridge magnet: apply the matching attachment to the model.
Articulation (bobblehead effect): when applied, the back of the model is flattened automatically, because this piece is printed lying down for the articulation to work.
Bases: one with a simple finish and another that cuts the bottom of the model to make it level.
Cutting spiral and spring (for the bobble effect on the head).
Size: adjust in centimeters or millimeters, keeping the proportions by default (you can turn this lock off).
Lock, hide or delete: each tool you apply appears in the editing history with these three options. Locking keeps a part from moving by accident while you edit other parts.
Text
Adjust size, depth (it is best to keep it low), color, font, line and letter spacing, and alignment. The text relief can be flat or curved, following the shape of the model.
Paint
Paint the model and use the eraser to remove parts of the paint (with a symmetry option). The mask isolates areas that should not be painted, for example to protect a figure's hand while you paint the rest of the body. You can invert the mask, apply it to everything or clear it.
Guided tour
A tour inside the platform explains the home panel, how to get started, the menus and the step to review and download the model. It appears automatically on your first visit and can also be opened later from a button inside Studio or from the information menu.
