I would love to see older anime, especially pre-2000. Bubblegum Crisis, Project A-Ko, 3x3 eyes, Devil Hunter Yohko, Princess Kahm from the Outlanders anime. I know it's all SUPER niche... but it'd be cool to see something outside of the shonen / new hotness normal.
Anime old and new
I'm a big fan of old sci-fi films ,like The Thing (1951 & 1982 versions),Flash Gordon (1934) a Ming model or diaroma I do love that rocket ship, it would be awesome, ALL of Ray Harryhausen's film creatures, and Original Planet of the Apes . Historical figures especially military, like US General George S. Patton and other World War 1 & 2 heros would be great even the planes and Tanks etc... Japanese real world Samurai's like Miyamoto Mushashi, Toyotomi Hideyoshi , Tomoe Gozen and Sanada Yukimura among the few along with some of their lengends and Mythical creatures. I could go on and on lol but you guys have some fantastic artist working . Also please not to much Anime a litttle variety is fine.
I m a great anime fan. As such I miss this categorie. It s an established and growing art form and you alreday did some great examples. Go on with this ;)
With the eventual resurgence of the StarCraft universe, I think it would be AMAZING to have a Kerrigan Queen of Blades model!
i like the variety you guys provide, and for the price, you offer the most models per month, so really just keep on keeping on.
On a side subject I would like to have the models pre-supported for a 75mm-120mm scale.
I like the variety of themes but I don't like the oversexualization that almost always happens, the use of AI for references is also a turn off but like I talked some time ago in the vip chat I just think it's not the right patreon for me and ended up cancelling my sub.
womp womp
love the variety, but maybe more games/retro games, older animes and shows is always cool. just a random one that popped in my head just now, felix the cat haha
What draws me to this patreon is 1. The quality. 2. The variety. You have stuff nobody else does. You also have some stuff that other people do, but I know I'm getting quality from you. Great sculpts great cuts.
Forgot to add, the other thing that really sets you apart are the quality Renders. Just pristine, absolutely helps sell the model.
I choose all of the choices, I really love all the figures you put out!! :)
First of all, greet you and congratulate you for your great work, I have a little more than half a year in this community, and considering that there are people with very different tastes, my suggestion that you make a piece of the different topics for each of the topics
I like the models that don't have a hundred different versions already out there. Even if your models are the best, generally speaking id still rather you give me originals than another wolverine (just for example).
I'm a little burnt out from all the Mythical stuff. I'd love to see a Transformers G1 line. You could offer a different part of a combiner Transformer like Devastator or Bruticus as loyalty reward every 4 months to keep people on longer. Imagine being able to print out Transformers as big as you like. Or Lord of The Rings or even an A Song Of Ice and Fire line.
Personally, I would love to see you continue the Gods theme. Going along with Cleopatra, doing Egyptian Gods next, especially in their "animal" form, would be awesome. That would satisfy most of the options except for Medieval Fantasy and Eastern Culture. To Satisfy Eastern Culture, Gods would also work. You could do Gods of India, such as Shiva or Budha, or even Japanese Oni would be awesome! Attila the Hun or Genghis Khan would be great Historical Characters. For Medieval Fantasy, I think it would be really cool to see you do King Arthur & his Knights of the Round Table. Merlin and Morgana would be great too. Maybe Arthur pulling a sword from the stone or receiving Excalibur from the Lady of the Lake. This would also satisfy most of the categories.
The two things I like the most about CA3D are the variety and quality. I do really like the theme approach like the Gods pack and Fantasy pack and I also really like the original work that CA3D does. Everyone else seems to stick to conventional themes like superhero, comics, etc - which I do also like - but I like the variety. The only genre I do not really care for is anime but that is just my opinion so I am with anime being included, but they are just usually not what I will print.
In the sci fi category I would like to see more androids/ robots, old or new. Maybe even some vehicles. Particularly unique items based off of works of art and not just movies/ comics. Something like in the Sorayama sexy robots vein would be sweet!
I’ve always liked the idea of taking classic anime and making them into a live action version of the character.
I'd love to see more anime, horror, comics, tv show and movie stuff. I feel like there's a lack of diversity in some of these genres and people just go with the main stream popular stuff. A 90s model every month would be cool!
lol literally any of that shiz!!🫶🏼
I love your 'Gods' series your sculptors have been doing. I'd love to see more Egyptian gods to go along with Anubis.
I beg you for more video game stuff! Like Fallout!!
dioramas/duels give you great storytelling and I feel like those are your best pieces. Comic books, and I really like gritty adaptations of comics like what you did for asterix and obelix, mythology, star wars.
I like all genres and everything that CA3D does. It doesn't mean I will print everything, but I appreciate the options. You're one of my favorite patreons because of your quality, quantity and breadth of subject matter.
+1.
Movie/TV characters, actors musicians!! Horror
Fantasy, Grimdark, Gaslamp, & sci-fi book characters. Nevernight, Game of Thrones, Locked Tomb, Red Rising, Sun Eater, Stormlight Archive, Shades of Magic, Malazan, Gentlemen Bastard series, etc. I feel nobody does book characters even though they are always on polls they lose out to current video game or comic character. 🙏🏽
Old school anime & video game characters. Everyone wants current and I get it, but there is a lack of love for old school models (especially male characters)
+1
Comic and movie/tv characters for me.
My reason to sub was the greek gods set but as someone else said the comments: You guys do what most of the studios don't. I hope you guys don't give up to follow new trends like all other patreons.
Comics, video games and iconic movie character for me. I’m basic
I joined specifically for the Asterix and Obelix set. Anime tiddy stls are a dime a dozen, and so is Superman and Batman. But the more unique subject matter is chef's kiss. Characterful poses you can't find elsewhere like the one of the Mask. Set runs like the Greek gods and seasons.
Asterix & Obelix is what made me join as well
Man...I like them all. What brought me here was Marvel sculpts though. I'll eat anything you cook though.
Why was Western Culture replaced with Eastern Culture between the email and the poll? Will there no longer be Comic Book Characters? I have no interest in anime whatsoever.
Most peolple like anime and game characters so womp womp
I like the mix of them all. Maybe once a quarter get a historical figure or once a year (I say that seeing it is not hugely popular in the votes, but would be great to have now and then). I am less enthusiastic by the anime, and I have zero desire for the NSFW, but I know they are hugely popular, and I just chose to not download those that I am not interested in. What I would really like is a Lady Marie-like figure in historically accurate clothing with no rips. I mean by that, an elegant looking lady in full 18th century naval uniform or something like that - still fantasy but more historically accurate clothing.
I joined because of the models you have provided on the past of dark fantasy art like Vallejo and Frazetta. I'm disappointed every time a new suggestion along the same line loses to an anime or comic suggestion. Historical soldiers would be cool. Of any/all eras including modern.
I personally really liked the God/Goddess serie. Also the "Fantasy serie" with the Fairy, Elegy of the wyrm, and the Elf princess was amazing too! ❤️ I would love to see more original models on this theme! 🙂
I think you guys are doing fantastic. I do like the original concepts as I do commission work and there's less grey area involved with printing, painting and selling those. The fantasy along with the gods and goddesses have been amazing. I don't have the same aversion as a lot do to the anime but there's definitely been an influx in creators pushing it for one reason or another and when that's all you get it's a little disappointing when you have experienced such lovely works like Cleopatra and Musashi.
I like the female form, super hero, fantasy, sci-fi, If without clothing, topless is okay. Too much anime! I've nealy left with so much anime, even when voting the non-anime group of choices have the majority of selections which are anime characters. Your normal figures are excelent, I'd like to see more of those,
I would love to see some 40's/50's Pinups. There are other artists that sculpt, but the female proportions are always over exaggerated and cartoonish. You could do real justice to tasteful poses and realistic anatomies!
You should really check Kuton Figurines! 😄
I like the variety of your proposal, picking the ones that talk to me. Why I support your job, is the naked art. It's not about a sexual interest, just the beauty of various bodies.
I love your gods series. They are great pieces and they are nowhere else. You can find Superman anywhere, where can you find a NSFW Babba Yaga? Only here.
Anime and video games! I think you have a great balance of models every month and there’s always at least one I would be buying to justify the price of admission. Keep up the great work!
My dream models are movie based characters: RJ Macready from The Thing, Indiana Jones, Ripley or Hicks from Aliens, etc. Not big on anime personally, so those models are entirely lost on me.
I love the variety here but I feel like there's way too much focus of anime in the mix. Maybe less anime and more stuff like asterix, or the fantasy figures (alice, little red riding hood etc.) as well as horror would be great.
I would love some horror figures.. good call!
More gods and goddesses I absolutely love the design and details of the past ones and would to see more in the future.
For me, the best thing about CA3D is the sculpts of original or unseen-in-stl models: cleopatra, asterix, apolo, demon queen and things like that. I'd love more fantasy things a la Frazetta, too
I play a war game called Corvus Belli Infinity and would love to see some of those models as statues. Would fill that Sci-Fi really well. Some JSA or Yu Jin. Sci-Fi samurai and ninja.
You are one of the best artist for realistic looking human figures. It would be a waste to have you do anything but humans. Other artist can fill that gap. Would also like a few western figures/ military uniforms of the past
Honestly, I've been with CA3D for awhile now. Anime will make me leave, full stop. There are many other Patreons that do nothing but Anime, CA3D should not have to do Anime to please a few. Hate on me all you wish, I have no clue who any one character in Anime is. Anime does show its head here. So why are some asking for more? In the monthly polls, CA3D asks for "Anime Character of the Month" and I don't vote those, I don't know who the characters are. But if Anime makes a stronger influence, I personally do not need to be here. Robots, 50/50 depending on the robot. Androids, like Alena (likely spelled her name wrong) are good. She was tastefully done in the movie, and I think CA3D (in the renders) did a wonderful job. As for a direction for CA3D, historical, dark, medieval, mythical are good choices. But CA3D has a good thing going. To change to much, to be like or start doing what or similar to what other Patreons are doing, thus doubling models, would be a waste. That would also mean, why pay for a Patreon that gives you the same thing as another? I pay here to get what I do not get from others. But if Anime or a whole lot of similar things start showing here (more than it has already), why would I need CA3D then?
Agree. I am quite new in this world and I have seen other Patreons with great artists too, but they are too focused on a single topic (some offer only superheroes, others offer mainly anime, etc. most of you would know which ones I am refering to without the need of mentioning them). I think CA3D is great not only because the quality of the models but also because of its variety. It would be a waste of these people's great talent to focus too much on a topic that is highly represented out there (despite we all want to see how CA3D manages these topics too from time to time).
Personally, I enjoy the art and in that regard, characters can come from all genre. I do, however, enjoy female characters more and appreciate the NSFW versions. If it is possible to include more sexual sensual postures, it would certainly spice things up. I do not meant obscene models with inappropriate proportions. More like foreplay.
I'd like to see your version of the more cartoonish characters in media. Your figure of The Mask is one I really like.
Much non human things. Trolls, aliens, robots,... Everything you want but something ugly (in the good way) and dirty
Anime
I'd like to see more robots or androids especially from Simon Stålenhag's graphic novels, 2 have been adapted to screen by Netflix "Tales From The Loop" and "The Electric State" may be slated as poor adaptations but both the books and films have great robots in them.
Thats also my reaction. I love the variety here and like all subjects. I love to see some sexy robots, cyberpunk like man/machine designs. Think Hajime Sorayama and ex machina , Asuka , ghost in the shell for example. They seem to be very rare.
I'm okay with all themes but could the use of ai pictures for references be stopped? Also the over sexualisation of Toph (and generally for characters where it doesn't fit like Soi Fon) is another thing that is off-putting.
can I vote all
I would love to see some horror themed pieces. Could be from specific films or just original horror pieces.
Second this!
Game characters as well please
ticked all the boxes as I stay for the mix there is usually at least 1 in your selection that I will print. Anime is usually my go to but game and movie characters as well. Last print I did was Mikasa and the one before was Red riding hood (love the fairytale themed ones as well lol)
ich bin für alles offen, ihr macht super Arbeit...
Sompething massive like GOT dragons. And the anime characters that we had and hopefully keep coming are amazing.
Just thought of this more Dioramas like dark Vader and X-Men one
I like the obscure characters. Most have a few spider-men to choose from, but there’s few Leeloo’s, Buffy’s, Zeusi or rocketeers… Roll on with some weird choices for me. Barbarella?
I'd love some oldies but guldies like iconic 90s and 00s carton and anime characters.
You mustn't forget that hyper-realistic comic figures are definitely bestsellers, as well as those based on works of art, fantasy artists, etc.
Would love to see some Dragons :) Probably falling to Mythical Creatures category. And by Historical figures, as if Ceasar, Achiles, Leonidas, Napoleon etc?? Yeah that would be interesting.
What is "historical figures"? I think like "Churchill" straight away :) Although maybe Henry VIII and the wives would actually make an interesting diorama...
Predator would be cool. I know lots of Patreons do that but they all have their own style. Would be cool to see what you guys could do
Really looking forward to judge dredd. Love the sc fi and historical figures.
I'm very against A.I. reference options in the polls.
Personally, I'm a huge fan of everything related to Heroic Fantasy (Game of Thrones, Lord of the Rings, D&D) and Fantasy Art (Boris Vallejo, Frazetta, Julie Bell...), mythical worlds, and historical figures. I've never supported any artist as much as I support you and Kuton, and every month I find a new favorite. As for science fiction, it depends (it's such a broad genre). When it comes to superheroes, I never download the models; I know it's a very popular field, but it doesn't personally inspire me, and that's often where I lose interest. In fact, I never even take part in the votes because I don't feel connected to it. I also prefer realistic creations over characters whose sculpting style leans toward anime — a style that is very popular among creators and already widely available.
No specific genre, but less comic style and more realistic.
I would appreciate it if you could introduce a 75 mm scale (approximately 1:24), which is more commonly used in miniature painting. I realize it’s possible just to rescale, but some details can become difficult to print then..
Yes
I know the world loves variety but for me personally I am already mostly happy with what you already produce. I just get confused on you poll choices categories where the “mostly happy” comes from; 2 male, 4 female and 1 anime. You have an Anime slot yet with the female/ male choices you fit it out with Anime too, keep Anime with Anime and you could be producing the said suggestions you’re asking for a vote on in the Male/ Female categories. I’d go a step further and dump one of the female choices and swap a category around each month to like Video game, comics, dark art, horror, ect, one; one month then swap it out for the next month. It will still be female mostly anyways if you give it the “right” reference art for the vote. Just my opinion
This comment nails it.
I think it would be cool to get some fantasy book characters/creatures. I would love to see takes on A Song of Ice and Fire characters that are book accurate and not show inspired.
You some amazing sculpters would love to see them let loose and create some original characters
I think you guys should continue doing what you’ve already been doing all along. I was telling some people (new to patreon) on discord just the other day that you guys were the best due to quality, quantity, cost, but most importantly VARIETY. I think the variety is your greatest strength. I’d love to see you do a little bit of all of these topics! Maybe even add a little more fresh content created by your own artists (like the enchanting depths model)?!
Besides comics and games, I would add also great names from music and movies
Scifi and videogames.
No love for pin-ups?
Here for the media and IP fanart. Would love to see AndrAIa from ReBoot someday!
I've enjoyed the variety represented in models. I would add comic, and game to the list.
I think a cool theme might be iconic Rulers and conquerors both historical and fantasy. People like, King Arthur, Attila the Hun, Emperor Palpatine, Alexander the great, etc.
I'd like to see you guys make some of the Iconic D&D characters. Like Drizzt or Xanathar. Even the kids from the old cartoon series would be awesome.
I agree with this! Other creators have done some of these but nothing in a sustained way, apart from a series of 75mm D&D miniatures. I'd love to see proper figurines that were part of a series with that CA3D magic touch :)
Uuuuum all of them hahaha I'm no help 😆
Fantasy Artist renderings similar to those from Frank Frazetta, Boris Vallejo, Julie bell, Gerald Brom, Mark Shultz, Luis Royo, Michael Whelan, Keith Parkinson, Gustavo ‘Ciruelo’ Cabral, Dariusz Zawadzki. This would be a good start.
I would like you to do a specific character that kind of bridges SF & Fantasy: Taarna from Heavy Metal. Perhaps with her mount.
I think CA3D did Taarna with her mount about two years ago!
Like today, I was so disappointed to see that Faye Valentine was winning the poll. Please just try to do thing that others aren't
I just joined today, but I'm loving almost everything I'm seeing! Comic book characters and fantasy are at the top of my list!
This is gonna sound super niche, but I'd like to see a line of historically accurate knights and armor sets. The only reason why is just because I never see anybody do them.
Id legit vote for this
Would love to see some horror icons. Ghostface, Chucky, Jason, Ash Williams and Pumpkinhead!
I like the variety you guys offer tbh
Love all your stuff and your artists' styles. Would love to see some book characters from fantasy series like Brandon Sanderson's Stormlight Archive series. Anyone that read the books knows how badass these characters are and that they'd make awesome models.
I like what you currently offer (whichever category they are in). Most of all I like the fact there is a collection of figures that go together like the gods. I also like the original figures that can be displayed on there own. I am, at present enjoying (viewing, not subbed) the toon studios and tanuki figures life like toon characters (Jonny Bravo and Popeye etc) and obviously your mask and Asterix. I am not against any of the suggestions but as Ian stated there is a glut of anime etc...
video game and comic book characters.
I believe sets of characters or themes of those that are constantly asked for should be considered heavily. ie: anime characters belonging to a show (Highschool of the dead, fire force, DBZ) characters belonging to a game (Marvel rivals, street fighter, overwatch...). Characters belonging to comics (avengers, Justice League, Spider-verse, Legion of doom,....)
Comic book and thicc females
thicc models should be chosen and not taken for granted. Personally, I was a little disappointed with Alloy in particular, when you look at the template design.
X-men mostly some horror too
Like others, my favorite are usually characters from video games, comics, cartoons (including anime), and movies. But I really like your mythological characters and unique offerings.
Anything interesting that hasn't been done by everyone else and items that could actually be sold without law suits.
Mainly comic book characters
More monsters like Kaijus or Digimon/Pokemon/Yu-Gi-Oh as lot people fucus on the character Like I love the fantasy as the Fairy and Oni
Video game characters would be awesome.
Anime, comic book and video game characters
None of the above 🤷♂️ comic book (marvel/DC) characters, video game characters, and anime characters would be my top desires 😅 kinda wild to me you didn't include any of these categories 🤷♂️
Cause most of the other patreons are doing it, if not there are exclusive to one you mentioned. Few are doing dark fantasy or myth creatures/characters, even fantasy, Sci-fi or pin ups are counted.
I like comic book figures as well, although I recognize (of course) there is a glut of figures out there. I might like to see some more "obscure" characters, like The Maxx, Bone, or S.C.U.D.
I prefer to stay away from historical figures category. Legends and mythology of various cultures is more interesting to me.
And video game characters, would love a Jak and Daxter or Ratchet and Clank
Jak and daxster would be amazing 😍
Would you consider sailor moon japanese culture?
Sailor Moon originated as a Japanese manga series created by Naoko Takeuchi, serialized in Nakayoshi magazine from 1991 to 1997. Most Japanese female students' uniforms are sailor suits.
I really like the take on historical figures. Would love to see some more like Vlad, Attila the Hun and such
Is agree. I don't think many artists are doing historical stuff, at least not as good as these guys. But I think it's only interesting with similar people to Cleopatra where you can put your own spin on it.
