Pre-launch · early access opening in waves
Sketch a character right in your browser. Miniwright reconstructs it into a 3D model, then an 8-stage print-prep pipeline hands you a watertight, correctly-scaled, based STL/3MF for resin or FDM — or it fails cleanly and never charges you for a broken file.
No 3D-modeling skills required. You draw the character — the app builds the printable file.
A real Miniwright generation — a 3D model reconstructed from a sketch.
How it works
The whole product is one loop: draw, generate, print-prep, download.
Sketch your character in a full in-browser editor — freehand, shapes, layers, multi-select, zoom and pan. The white canvas is your export background.
Pick a quality tier (Draft, Standard, or Pro) and optionally add texture. Miniwright reconstructs your drawing into a 3D mesh. Credits are held, not yet spent.
An 8-stage pipeline — inspect, repair, scale, thin-check, base, hollow, orient, export — produces a watertight, correctly-scaled, based model for resin or FDM. If it can't, you're not charged.
Inspect the result in an in-browser 3D viewer, tweak tech, scale and base for free, then download the print-ready STL/3MF. Publish to the community gallery if you like.
Reconstruction fidelity depends on your drawing and the tier you pick, and print success also depends on your slicer and hardware. The guarantee is about the file: watertight, scaled, and based — or no charge.
What's real today
Everything below is built and tested in the product — no roadmap promises.
Every deliverable file is watertight, correctly scaled to 28/32mm heroic, and based — for resin and FDM, via per-technology thresholds. If a mesh can't be repaired, the job fails cleanly and you're never charged for a broken file.
Register up to four views (front, side, back) with shared, locked proportion guides, onion-skinning, and cross-view part propagation — so the reconstruction has more to work from and the model comes out truer.
Drop in parts — eyes, wings, hands, weapons, legs, armor, outfits — that snap to your drawing's anchors and aid your own sketch. It's an enhancement library to strengthen your art, not a build-a-figure kit.
Inspect the model in an in-browser 3D viewer with an as-modeled vs. as-printed overlay. Change tech, scale, or base and the deterministic stages re-run for free. Download STL/3MF, single or in batches.
The pipeline tunes per technology — hollowing and drain holes on the resin path, wall and feature thresholds for FDM — so the file you download suits the printer you actually own.
Publish finished models — public, unlisted, or private — with a title, tags, and likes, then browse what others have made. Re-edit and re-export any model any time.
Business model
You buy credits to generate models. Subscriptions add recurring credits and perks like premium parts, a priority queue, and a commercial license — they don't gate quality.
Free to start
Create an account and get free credits to explore the editor, catalog, and 3D preview.
Most flexible
Pay as you go buy what you need
Buy credits and spend them per generation. No subscription required.
Hobby / Pro monthly perks
Recurring credits plus perks that go beyond quality — which stays ungated.
Credit costs per generation are real; the price of credits and subscriptions is still being finalized — the tiers above show how Miniwright earns, not final dollar amounts. Payments are handled by Paddle, our Merchant of Record, which takes care of global sales tax and VAT.
Examples
Below are actual models generated by Miniwright, alongside real catalog parts from the enhancement library.
Real outputs from the reconstruction + print-prep pipeline, shown as the untextured printable geometry the STL contains by default. Results vary with your drawing and the quality tier you choose.
Line-art parts (eyes, wings, weapons, hands, armor, outfits and more) snap to your sketch's anchors to strengthen your own drawing.
About
Miniwright is built by a solo founder. It started from a simple frustration: turning a character idea into a printable miniature meant learning 3D sculpting, or hunting for someone else's model that never quite matched what you pictured.
Raw image-to-3D tools get you a mesh, but skip the unglamorous part — making that mesh actually printable: watertight, scaled to the tabletop, and sitting on a base. Miniwright is the connective layer: a freeform drawing tool, a curated parts catalog tuned to reconstruct cleanly, and a print-prep pipeline that guarantees the file, or doesn't charge you for it.
It's early. The product is built and tested through its core phases, and early access is opening in waves while the launch is finalized. If that sounds like something you'd use, the waitlist below is the way in.
