Next, adjust the box to your liking of width, length and height using the small squares on the corners and edges. These transparent boxes will be our door and windows. | {{:screenshot_2024-09-02_131046.png?400|}} To get these 3 identical slabs, select an existing slab, and then copy and paste onto the grid. | {{:screenshot_2024-09-02_130642.png?400|}} The cone shaped emblem shown here allows you to freely move the slab up and down once selected. | | | {{:screenshot_2024-09-02_130337.png?400|}} This may look like a jump but it's fairly simple!

Once they are slightly inside of your house, you will then group all 4 shapes together by clicking your left mouse pad outside of the model and moving your cursor over the 4 shapes. Once they are all highlighted you can press ctrl+g to group. | {{:screenshot_2024-09-02_134404.png?400|}} To add text to your creation, select the "TEXT" option where you found the shapes. Once placed on the roof of your house, you will have the option to put whatever you want as your text. Reshape the text with the small boxes on the corners. You can also put a specific numbered size when you click on the boxes. If you want to change the color you can press the circle you see above the word "solid." (This applies to every shape you see on screen.) | {{:screenshot_2024-09-04_222622.png?400|}}You're almost done with your creation. Now, add a small character. To get to this character there will be a heading on the tab to the right saying "Basic Shapes." Click and select "Creatures & Characters." Here, you can select anything you want! Once placed on your pad, it will look extremely large. | | | {{:screenshot_2024-09-02_131749.png?400|}} Now, raise 2 of the slabs up and slightly into the house to create indents.

When you select the small boxes on the corners of a placed object, you can adjust the numbers. If you want the creature/character to appear slightly smaller than your house, divide each of the object's proportions (length, width, and height) by 5. |{{:screenshot_2024-09-02_145528.png?400|}} Once you're done you will have to export your creation into an STL and you'll be ready to print| Try to zoom in on certain aspect you want them to pay attention to| | | {{:screenshot_2024-09-02_135242.png?400|}} Here's what I do to make it smaller without worrying if its proportionate: divide!
