A model you can inspect from every side.
2nd Brick creates a digital design proposal, rather than simply applying a brick texture to your picture. You can inspect its 3D shape and building steps and request changes. A convincing render alone does not prove a model can be built: construction, available parts, and the final quote need review before an order.
Explore the example models and instructions to see the level of detail you can inspect. These examples demonstrate the viewer; they are not before-and-after photo conversions.
Choose a reference that makes the subject clear.
- Use a well-lit photo with the whole subject visible. A plain background makes its shape easier to understand.
- Describe details the photo cannot show: the back, the depth, a hidden support, or which features must stay recognizable.
- Say whether you want a freestanding sculpture, a scene, or a framed relief. A flat portrait and a model viewed from all sides need different designs.
- Give a preferred size and explain whether small details or a simpler build matter more. Tiny features may need to be enlarged or simplified in bricks.
The request form accepts up to four PNG, JPG, or WebP reference images, with large images optimized automatically. Use a picture you have permission to upload.
From reference to reviewed proposal.
- Share the idea. Upload a photo and describe the subject, pose, colors, and display style.
- Receive your design. Our team will email your design within 12–24 hours. Review it and tell us what you would like to change.
- Approve your set. Review the design, construction, parts availability, and quote before placing an order. Manufacturing and delivery timing are confirmed separately.
Before you start
Can I turn a pet or house photo into a set?
You can use either as a design brief. Clear silhouettes and distinctive details make a stronger starting point. Complex fur, very thin parts, and architectural detail may need simplification; the result is a brick interpretation, not an exact replica.
How much does a custom set cost?
There is no single price for every photo. Size, piece count, part types, colors, and availability affect the quote. A generated design is not a confirmed physical product or final price.
Does uploading a photo place an order?
No. It starts a design proposal. Review the design and quote before deciding whether to order; fulfillment and payment availability depend on the reviewed proposal.
