How Quali3D art is made: AI-assisted design, printed to order

A plain description of how Quali3D designs and makes its canvases: AI image tools plus finishing for print, then printed and stretched to order in California.

We would rather tell you how our art is made than leave you guessing.

The design

Quali3D designs are created with the help of AI image tools and finished by us for print. We choose the subject, write and refine the prompts, pick the results that fit the series and prepare them for large-format printing. The style is blocky, voxel-inspired pixel art, and every composition (a dragon over snowy peaks, floating islands, a Christmas village, the landmarks) is our own.

The printing

Canvases are printed to order by a production partner in California, on matte canvas stretched over a pine wood frame, with back hanging included. Nothing sits in a warehouse waiting; that is why each order takes 5 to 7 days to produce before it ships.

The 3D-print files

Our STL and 3MF files are for printing at home. Where a file is based on someone else's design, we credit the designer and keep to their licence; for example, our card storage box is a CC BY-SA 4.0 remix credited to its original designers.

What we are not

We are not Mojang, Microsoft, Nintendo or The Pokémon Company, and our products are not official merchandise.
