I decided to start an art toy design, i happened to found this video. This actually motivates me, thank you
That's awesome, glad it helped!
Thanks Andy, awesome stuff!
Wow, what a process!
This video came in the right time when I just started involving with toys packaging. Thanks!
Hope you found it helpful!
This was the perfect video. Thanks for laying out your findings for the process. A+
Man this video and ur pencil video really help with making my figure look better 🤩 thank you and I hope u keep making more DIY for people with small businesses
Absolutely amazing! Great job…looking forward to your next videos. I learned a lot. Thank you again!
Amazing brother..what a world to live in where we can print out and make our own toys.
i love theese collectibles you make!
Wonderful work, Andy! Thank you for sharing. This content is great, I wish to see more of your work soon!
I've been caught up with other priorities at the moment but I hope to make some more content soon!
Tiy are a blessing to beginner artist like myself. Thanks so much
I’ve been wanting to start a collectibles store and I really like this I found out more knowledge from you thank you so much
Absolutely loved this video. Learned alot, ive got molding and casting down but this was a step i wanted to take soon. Definitely subscribed
Thank you so much! This step is really just the cherry on top, if you've got molding and casting down you've definitely mastered the harder part. Looking forward to seeing your next creations!
What an awesome new channel! I’m really looking forward to seeing what you come up with. I’m sure your channel will flourish over time, so pleased I’m with you from the beginning. “GOOD LUCK AND KEEP UP YOUR FANTASTIC CONTENT”
Thank you so much!
@@AndyMakes I really do hope you keep making these. I would love to see your take on making something a bit more complicated like an anime figure. The way you make these they look so professional.
Great tutorial, thank you for making it
Love these! I started customizing art in my videos 🖤🖤🖤
Awesome Andy! Any new videos coming?
love it!
Hey Brother, start making more videos! I'm sharing this around, so hopefully you get more subs. Great work!
I really hope to start back up soon. Having a baby depletes all your free time but im sure I'll find some moments soon!
Awesome video!!! i wish i could afford that forming machine... i guess i will have to try DIY solutions... Thanks for sharing mate!!! take care!!!
The DIY solutions definitely work and you get the added benefit of making them exactly the size you want
Love seeing the process. If you round the corners of your buck it’ll get rid of the webbing.
That's a great idea, these sharp box shaped bucks had webbing even on my best attempts. I'm guessing commercial applications account for some excess and trim it off when they have box shaped forms.
Amazing!!!
amazing
this tutorial is lit 🔥
So underrated
The best video
Thanks sir
Keep going！！
awesome!!!! :)
Sickk!!!!
I have one question what kind of filament u use?
Thank you!! I generally just grab the colors I want without paying attention to the brand. For stuff that isn't going to be out through much stress I don't try to make sure the filament is the best.
For this toy specifically I grabbed Ramberry Silk PLA, which just happened to be the cheapest Silk PLA on Amazon at the time. ( Probably not the best though )
This so so fire! What paper did you use by chance?
I actually used regular posterboard, in the US they sell this stuff at almost every store for school projects. Real product packaging uses paperboard but it's too thick for most home printers
Hey, love the toy itself and your videos! Wat this toy painted or is there ways to multicolor print? Also what exact material do you use for printing to get a good result? Thank you in advance, love your channel, got my follow!
Thank you! This toy is a multicolor print, I separated all the pieces of different colors and printed them out individually. The best results I get are with resin printing though, and for those painting would definitely be the way to go.
@@AndyMakes thank you for answer! i don't own a 3d pronter and not that into details about it, but i do 3d tho. so when i'll send my model out for printing what do you suggest i tell em? I need it printen with resin? Or is there any specific names you could suggest! Sorry for bothering, big thanks!
@@medrie95
Ooh okay good to know. So regular 3D printing FDM will tend to have a lot of visible layer lines, but if you're ordering it you don't have to worry about getting good results, they typically wont ship anything with defects and will reprint it til they get it right.
Some of them also offer SLA printing (typically resin) which has barely visible layer lines that paint would cover up with no problem and it will look like a toy you can buy off the shelf.
Both this video and the one I have with the pencil figure used FDM printing so it does get pretty good results and will likely be cheaper. The pencil video covers how it can be painted if you're curious.
i love that vacuum forming for toys packages.
but the cost for the machine itself is expensive.
it's $965 in my country, and i don't have vacuum cleaner for it
There are some diy vacuum formers on TH-cam with awesome results but you're still going to need a strong vacuum for it :(
Aight, well there goes my money.
😎👍
cause of me you now have 1k subs haha 1000th subscriber
Where is the list of makers you learned from? Interested in seeing their stuff, too.
I have the links up in my description, but I watched Blender Guru and Grant Abbit's videos to learn Blender, I watched Small Robot Studio to learn Nomad Sculpt. If you're entirely new to 3D I'd definitely start with Blender since it's free.
Love this stuff. Do you sell these little art toys? They're great
Thanks! I'm working on making molds so that I can sell a small batch without all the printer artifacts. But I haven't yet, hopefully soon!
Nice video bro ❤️. Thx ..for clearing my douts ..🥰...but plz tell me ur vacume machine name
Thank you, glad I could help! The vacuum former I use is called the Mayku Formbox!
when will you make another video?
I've actually been dragging my feet editing my next two videos. I built an arcade cabinet and will hopefully have that out soon!
Sorry I don't speak English fluently, did you talk about what printer you used for the packaging and for what kind of paper ?
I would like to know pls. Cool video anyway
The printer I used was the epson xp-15000. And the paper is posterboard cut to 13inches x 19inches
@@AndyMakes thank you !
Were buy this item?
Pls make another content i love ❤it plsss😭😭😭😭
I've got new videos lined up that I just need to finish editing but hopefully soon!
Where’d you go? I’m waiting on another video sir.
Got Married and had a baby! It's tough work with a newborn and a full-time job but slowly my schedule is starting to normalize again. I know I've said this countless times already but: Hopefully Soon!
@@AndyMakes Dude I totally get it. I'm 22 with a 16 month old and a newborn while working a full time Corporate job. You take as much time as possible with the family. I hardly remember my sons first months because it went by so fast. We'll be here when you are ready
what material did you use to print your mold before placing into vacuum former as PLA melts?
I actually did use PLA, the vacuum from plastic cools off before it can soften the PLA.
I did notice if I didn't wait a minute in between forms that the PLA started to get a little soft but never to the point of deforming.
Really nice video ! I wondered if anyone got a link to a similar poster board cardboard please ^^'
I don't think these have brand names, and I don't know where you live, but I found mine at my local grocery store in the small school supply section they have. Looking online, I noticed Walmart has them for even cheaper at 33 cents each, I'll put a link in the description, but if you're in the states, you should be able to find this at just about any store. It's the posterboard that has one glossy side, one matte side and you'll print on the matte side (Unless you have a printer that can print on the glossy side)
Subbing this stuff is fire!!
I hope I have something like that. Been designing toys for a while but I don't have the budget to do it 😭 helpppp
Hi man, really cool project, would you share tje box template? Please!!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
After doing some searching, I think I found the template I used (though I think it's on a different site) It looks the same. I'll put the link in the description
@@AndyMakes thank you so much, i also found this, hope it helps th-cam.com/video/-zu7wLxGJEs/w-d-xo.html
You know you don't have to slam down the vacuum former to get a good mold.
I wish my vacuum former had a softer latching mechanism, it requires a good bit of force to release it. I've found I end up with a better result if I keep that force going all the way down. If I try to unlatch it and then go down slowly I find that I end up jerking back up from all the force needed and causing the plastic to fold on itself
If I don't have a 3D printer to make the mold how else can I make it?
It might be possible to sculpt the mold with a polymer clay. You will have to work harder to get it looking even but it should work
@@AndyMakes thanks for the input that was my original idea but u said it...it's quite hard to smooth it out exactly the way want it. Thanks!
i am trying to design packaging for a client for the first time. she gave me a pdf template of the packaging but i am unsure of how to translate it so the dimensions are correct in photoshop. Any advice?
does the template show the dimensions the packaging should be? if so, there's rulers on the margins of your window as well as a ruler tool (found under the eyedropper's dropdown) that can be used to measure so you can ensure that if it doesn't open to the correct size initially, you'll be able to resize it accordingly.
For instance, if the template says a side is 5 inches, you can import it into photoshop and use the ruler to measure the size of that side. if it's not measuring at 5 inches then you can make the entire template bigger or smaller until that side matches what you need and as long as you're resizing the entire thing together you should retain the correct proportions.
what is the machine called? you have a link
The Vacuum Former? It's the Mayku Formbox
Bro come back 😢
Did u sell in India ??
I haven't sold any yet, but if I ever do I'll do my best to try to ship internationally too!
Is there a company that do this for you ?
From start to finish? I'm sure there are but they are dependent on large orders and are overseas.
For a small batch DIY is probably the only way to go.
I know I don't need your exact printer to get the same results but id love to know which model you've got! 😳
I'm just working with an Ender 3 Pro, they've gone down in price a ton over the years and there's usually stores offering a discount on it too
@@AndyMakes sorry I meant inkjet printer haha! thanks for the response tho! 😁
Oh! Sorry about that, the inkjet printer is an Epson XP-15000
Love this bro I have messaged you on Instagram 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
