What Ownage is good for right now this moment

Stinky_fish440

We get a lot of emails from people asking how they can use Ownage. And at the end of those emails comes the catch, "Oh I don't know how to use any 3D programs."

Give a fish or teach a man to fish you know?

Actually, Ownage was built around the idea that anyone should be able to build gorgeous action figures just by pressing a few buttons. It should be as easy as getting up in the morning and putting on some clothes (hope you're the clothes wearing type).

We'll be helping you guys with this soon.

In the meanwhile, here's how you can help yourself.

1) Pick up a intuitive 3d drawing program like ZBrush. ZBrush is an amazing technology. It's more than a program. It makes sculpting in 3D as easy as drawing on a piece of paper. The community is great and you will find me on www.zbrushcentral.com as Desmoda. Send me a hello. Hello!

2) Work with a famous 3D artist. We know a lot of talented Da Vinci's in the making that would love to work with you to make your dreams come true. You do the thinking, they do the drawing.  We'll set you two up (they charge their own rates).  When you're done, come back to ownage and get your idea made!


For the time being, Ownage is the most helpful for:

1) 3D artists who want to make their work real.

2) Indie artists and people who want to make short-run cold-cast resin kits, designer vinyl toys, or PVC figures. Now you can skip the whole $2000 sculpt out of clay step. Glob together a body in a 3d program. Stick on some eyes. And we can make it for you for peanuts (less than $99 sometimes). We got toy factories to make your copies. It's so much easier to make stuff now.

3) Game companies that want to turn their character lineups into an army of awesome collectible toys. We can even mass produce them if you end up wanting to turn it into a real product and sell it to your fans.

That's it for now. Thanks for all the great feedback guys.

Pricing Drop

It's about time I make this official. We've NEVER charged someone $299 for their print (unless we upgraded them massively or done a ton of free printing).

Why? Because we can.

So starting now, we officially announce that the old pricing is dead and we are MASSIVELY dropping prices for you guys. You can print in any size now and we will only quote+charge you for the cost of manufacture.

This does not affect existing customers because it's still the same system, we've never charged more than necessary to get the print out, so its all fair game.

The price for painted models might fluctuate in the future but not by much unless we're suddenly inundated with impossible requests.

If you print less than 100mm, we won't do it for now until we have our Desktop Gaming Printing System down pat. Please be patient, it's about perfect quality.
