Upload reference image
A simple picture of a bust was enough to generate a full body render.
In ChatGPT, upload a reference image of yourself and try the prompt below to build the figure:
Make a picture of a plastic 3D action figure toy, named "Your Name" Make it look like it's being displayed in a transparent plastic package, blister packaging model. The figure is as in the photo, her style is very cute, glasses, pink hair. On the top of the packaging there is a large writing: "Name" in white text then below it "Tag line” Dressed in black. Also add some supporting items for the job next to the figure, like a Soldering Iron, oscilloscope, Circuit Board. The packaging design is minimalist, cardboard colour, cute toy style sold in stores. The style is cartoonish, cute but still neat, also put Adafruit logo in the top right corner
Modify render
Apply any additional edits to the prompt to modify the render.
Make sure all body parts are visible to ensure a printable figure is generated.
The picture listed had difficulty generating the hand connected to the arm. We'll simply add "remove board from hand" to the prompt to help it render the figure.
Generate 3D Model
There are a couple of great 3D model generators, for this project we used masterpiecex.com. Use the Image-to-3D option to upload the image from ChatGPT.
Inspect the model by rotating around it to make sure there are no floating disconnected parts to the figure.
Export the retopologized mesh at the high setting. This will make assigning colors to each polygon easier when printing with a multicolor printer.
