Original Abstract Submitted
a method for 3-dimensional (3d) model creation is described. the method may include generating a virtual world and a plurality of virtual objects in the virtual world. each virtual object may be associated with a physics rule. the method may further include obtaining a first user input to generate a virtual character in the virtual world by combining a first virtual object and a second virtual object from the plurality of virtual objects. the method may further include generating the virtual character based on physics rules associated with the first virtual object and the second virtual object. the method may additionally include obtaining a second user input to 3d print the virtual character into a physical object. the method may further include transmitting a request to a 3d printing system to 3d print the virtual character.
