The hardest scan we do and the one people cry over. Pets do not hold still, so we allow extra time and work around the animal rather than the other way round. Bring treats. You can be in the scan with them, or leave them the whole frame.

Each extra person +$89

$50 is taken when you book to hold the slot. The balance is due when you collect the finished piece, because the final figure depends on how many people end up in the scan and how large the print is.

How it goes

  1. Book a time. Pick a slot below and pay the deposit to hold it.
  2. Come in. 45 min at the studio. Wear what you want to be wearing forever.
  3. We clean it up. A raw scan is never print-ready. This is the part that takes the skill.
  4. Collect it. Around two to three weeks later, longer for large pieces.

Questions

How do you scan a pet that will not sit still?

The rig captures every angle at once rather than sweeping around the animal, so it only needs a fraction of a second of stillness rather than a minute of it. We allow extra time, work at the animal’s pace, and you hold and settle them. Bring treats.

How long until I get my figurine?

Two to three weeks from the session for most pieces, longer for large or multi-person prints. The scan itself takes minutes; the time goes into cleaning the mesh by hand, which is the part that decides whether it looks like you.

What should I wear to a 3D scan?

Texture and pattern scan beautifully. Avoid shiny black, sheer fabric and anything reflective, because the scanner reads those as holes. Bring a change if you are unsure and we will tell you which reads better before we start.

Where are you based?

Our studio is in Auckland. For events we bring the scanning rig to your venue anywhere in New Zealand.

Do I pay the whole amount up front?

No. $50 is taken when you book, to hold the slot. The balance is due when you collect the finished piece, because the final figure depends on how many people end up in the scan and how large the print is.
