Step 2: Choose a Drawing

Pick one of your child's drawings to transform. Any medium works — crayons, colored pencils, markers, or paint.

Drawings that work especially well:

  • Characters or people with clear shapes
  • Artwork with defined outlines
  • Colorful, filled-in drawings

That said, even simple line drawings make wonderful figurines. figmee celebrates your child's unique style, no matter how simple or detailed.

Step 3: Take a Photo and Upload

Snap a photo of the drawing in good lighting, holding your phone directly above the artwork. Then upload it to figmee.

How to upload:

  1. Open your figmee dashboard
  2. Tap "Create New Figurine"
  3. Take a photo or select one from your gallery
  4. Review the image and continue

Supported formats include PNG, JPEG, WebP, and GIF.

Step 4: Generate Your Figurine

Once your photo is uploaded, tap the "Generate" button. The AI will analyze your child's drawing and create a charming 3D figurine version.

  • Generation typically takes 30 seconds to 2 minutes
  • Keep the screen open while it processes
  • Your finished figurine appears on your dashboard

Step 5: Share and Enjoy

Your new figurine is ready to be enjoyed in many ways:

  • Share on social media with friends and family
  • Print it out and frame it for display
  • Send it as a gift to grandparents or loved ones
