A shelf at home, a desk at work, a corner that needs a little personality. Some gifts find their place straight away.
Formacara starts with the things people love: a sport, a shared adventure, a day worth celebrating. Your photograph makes it theirs.

FROM PHOTO TO FIGURINE
Start with a clear photo and tell us who to include, the occasion and the feeling you want to capture.
Choose a PLA colour and finish, then generate an illustrative preview of your figurine from the photo.
The 3D model helps estimate material and printing time. Change the height to recalculate the price; shipping is a separate charge.
LAYER BY LAYER
You will also receive a timelapse of your own figurine being printed: a short video to watch it take shape and share the story behind your gift.
3D printed and finished in Switzerland
Start with your photoThe whole figurine, including its base, is printed in one PLA filament. Matte, glossy or material-effect finishes give it personality. Copper, wood and marble effects describe the filament finish; they do not mean a solid metal, carved wood or stone statue. On-screen colours are indicative.
This footballer is a physical Formacara print in dark grey PLA Basic, photographed from three angles. These are photographs of the printed piece, not simulations.



The photographs show the pose, football, folds in the shirt and base. Filament deposition marks are visible on the base; the face and tiny details do not have photographic definition. Lighting and shadows are part of the original photographs.
Detail depends on the subject, size and chosen finish. This example helps you recognise the surface of a physical PLA print.
We ship from Switzerland to supported European destinations. Select your country in the configurator to check availability and shipping costs, shown separately from the figurine price. Restrictions apply to certain destinations or territories. Details of any import VAT, duties and customs clearance fees are set out in the delivery terms for your destination.
GOOD TO KNOW
A sharp, well-lit photo with the subject clearly visible is the best start. For a full-body figurine, include the whole person, their feet and any accessories. If other people appear, tell us exactly who to keep.
This service uses one PLA filament for the entire figurine: face, clothing, accessories and base. Shape and pose create the likeness, while the chosen finish gives the piece its look.
It is a three-dimensional interpretation of the photo. Hidden areas need to be reconstructed, and fine details may be simplified for printing. The illustrative preview helps you assess the idea; the actual model still needs a separate technical check.
The examples on this page are illustrative Foto3D simulations, including the desk setting. They show possible subjects and finishes, not physical samples or customer testimonials.
Open the configurator, upload your photo and choose the subject and finish. After the preview, calculate the price for your preferred size; shipping is separate.
