Brick-set designer

STUDS

Turn your model into a brick set. Work offline.

Turn a model from your game, film or artwork into a brick set, entirely on your device. No AI translation, no cloud processing and no server saves. Choose the detail, refine every piece in the built-in editor, then export the parts and instructions.

In development. No public release date yet.

Little Fox converted into a coloured brick model in STUDS, with a green hood, orange face and silver sword.

What it does

Import, refine and export. All locally.

  • Import

    GLB, GLTF, OBJ, STL, FBX, PLY, 3MF or DAE, straight from your project. Everything stays on your machine.

  • Shape

    Choose the detail and the surface style, then recolour, replace or remove pieces by symmetry, by column, or by matching part and colour.

  • Build

    A parts list, supplier exports, and illustrated instructions you can print, for a set made from your game.

In detail

  • Start with your model

    A character you already know.

    Little Fox begins as an ordinary coloured 3D model. Import a model from your own project to start a set.

  • Import and find the build

    Your model becomes your starting point.

    Open a model and its textures together. Rotate it, choose a size and surface style, then generate a brick interpretation. The conversion runs locally, without an AI service or a model upload.

  • A full editor, right alongside

    Make it yours, piece by piece.

    The generated build is a starting point. Zoom in and select a piece to change its colour or shape. Replace or remove matching pieces together, work by layer and undo your edits. Builds are saved on this device.

    Export illustrated steps and a parts list. Each step shows the pieces you need and where they fit.

What it will not do

  • Sell you bricks

    STUDS designs the set and gives you the parts list. Physical bricks are purchased separately.

  • A public download today

    STUDS is still in development. There is no beta signup or announced release date.

Questions we get

Can I work offline?
Yes. Once the app and the tools you need have loaded, model conversion, editing and exports run on your device. Your models and saved builds stay local; they are never uploaded for processing or storage.
