Charlie, the action figure! (Patreon)

Before you start collecting money to buy it, I should mention that it's just an AI-generated rendering! I've seen other people create action figures of their OCs and I wanted to make mine too, because I'd love to have action figures of my characters. It's not easy to make even a prototype; the only way I could do that would be to use clay or papier-mâché, but I haven't done that kind of thing for years. 3D modelling is like rocket science to me, and I don't even have a 3D printer (although it's something I'd like to try). So why not dream with AI?The rendering is very nice and looks just like the way I draw Charlie. I would use this rendering to create a real 3D model. In a couple of years (or less), you might be able to provide a few drawings of a character from different angles to an AI, and it would produce a 3D model ready to be printed.I might not be so happy about this if I worked in 3D modelling, but it's only a game. I wouldn't spend money on hiring a professional just to see what my OC would look like as an action figure.Here is the original drawing that I used to create this rendering:

And here is also the link to the time-lapse video of the drawing process. As you can see i discarded a lot of poses before finding the one you see here: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/uf97qsv078xcc5tjg7m4x/charlie-actionfigure.mp4?rlkey=vo0qp24osa7ue83n9vl8puwoi&dl=0And don't forget that Charlie new strips will be back on Friday!
