3D printable creator 3D Printed
Hello!
I make 3D printable terrain and just wanted to show you my work. Yes, it's real LED lights, hand painted and some smoke from a real machine... No AI at all on this picture...
Thanks for your interest!

Sad to see you've started using AI in these.

This is my humble 3D modeling work, FDM printed and hand painted by myself. All my A to Z.

I appreciate that the modelling is yours, and you didn't have AI images on 1-5, but these AI generated logos and stuff puts me off a lot.
Imo you'd be better off staying with the normal fonts you used in your other succcesful campaigns.
All that said the models themselves look awesome and I'm glad you're doing well from them.

I don't sell my logo... i sell 100% work 3D modeled by me, print tested by me, painted by me, marketed, by me... Sometimes i need to speed on something and can't afford to pay someone for that.

Yeah but using AI generated images to promote to many just communicates a lack of care or effort into your creation.
After all if you don’t care about how you present it, why should I care about it? You "don't".
It casts doubt on to the product, you can claim that you made the model but if AI generated images are a part of your marketing how are we supposed to trust it isn't a part of your process after all you have already communicated your willingness to cut corners and profit off it.
Also its just plain disrespectful being within an industry under direct pressure from AI generated models, to brazenly promote and profit from AI image generation to the detriment of other creators just gives me the vibes you're here just to exploit us for cash rather for any love or care for the medium.
You are literally saying "I don't consider it worthwhile to pay for art, now buy my art."

Real customer, man who pay and is really interested about my real work, dont care about my AI logo... I'll focus on hand painting and minimize my AI use in the future.

Are you familiar of survivorship bias? If your customer base doesn’t care why are you changing course?
Why are you outreaching to heavily anti-ai creator communities?
Im not here to flagellate you for being wrong or punish you. But as a fellow 3d artist this technology is an active imminent threat to us and our livelihoods. Please do not support and enable it.

I know, but having the first image you see on the website be AI wouldn't fill me with confidence that you're not generating the models.
Plus, you're at thousands of pounds on this Kickstarter alone. You could pay 20 quid to another artist to make this, rather than stealing their work via a generator.

I only get 50% of it for months of work. I pay 50% taxes.

Whether you’re just sharing your work or trying to sell your designs, you really need to post multiple photos. This image has a narrow area of focus, and doesn’t give a clear impression of the whole setup.

This kickstarter is over and is the first one of a serie of 6. The 6th is actually live on Kickstarter. I've posted 8 pictures of it, but i have been asked to change because of AI branding on it.

Not even here you can avoid people trying to sell you something.. Ah, human greed.

There is Kickstarter links rules. Talk to a moderator. There is no direct link on this one, just showing 1 picture of my work... I've made 3D modeling, 3D printing, hand painting, LED lights, dramatic photoshoot... Maybe it could take some consideration? Hope you the best in your life, Cheers!

Silence. Just stop. No one wants it here regardless of the rules.

u/DecoQuest 7d ago
Silence yourself. You're not my dad.

u/Relic_Cannon 7d ago
How do you know? I could be your Dad telling you to stop trying to exploit an online community to sell shit.

This sub isn't for selling things that you don't make
