# About me
Hey there!You all can call me Nyasu!
My partner is RabidPeep and we print ponies.
~ FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ~
What program do you use for your 3D modeling?
I use 3ds Max for everything. Most of my earlier models were intended for video game use, so Max was a natural choice. You can download it from the Autodesk website if you're a student.
Can I download your models for Gmod / Source Filmmaker / my own printing?
You cannot. These models are made for our personal 3D printing commissions. They put food on the table. :P
What kind of printer do you have? How much was it?
We use a Reprap Prusa Mendel. My partner Rabid bought it for around $800, assembled it from scratch, and does all the maintenance for it. Have any more questions about the process of running a printer or making models for printing? Feel free to throw one of us a message!
What made you guys decide to take up 3D printing?
Owning a 3D printer had been a long-held dream of Rabid's, and last summer it finally became possible. I heard about it and wanted in because it sounded cool as hell and was a good opportunity to build up my 3D modeling portfolio. Our skill sets and work styles are perfectly suited to collaborating on a project like this, as he has the technical expertise, I have the artistic expertise, and we're both decently knowledgeable in the other's field so it's easy to communicate. Neither of us could pull this off without the other.
Do you sell 3D prints of non-pony things?
We definitely intend to eventually. The problem is that they will take longer than ponies by virtue of not having a uniform body shape. PokΓ©mon and anthros are top of the to-do list. Video game characters are an interesting case because there's a possibility that we could simply print the already-existing in-game model if it's available online. Feel free to ask.
Do you guys do trades?
Not at this time, sorry. But if you're a plushie maker we might be forced to reconsider.
Why hasn't my commission been printed yet?
Ask Rabid. @_@ He runs the printer and has control over everything on that end of the process so whenever anyone asks me this all I can do is stand there feeling kind of embarrassed.
How do I commission a running pony animation?
Sorry, but I don't do animated commissions anymore. Unless you're one of the handful of people still on the waitlist of old, but if you are, chances you wouldn't be asking this.
Are you ever going to finish that Locking up the Sun animation?
I'm amazed that people still want to see this completed. The answer is yes, and I'll probably work on it as soon as we get the commission list under control.

Howdy there, friend!
We're here today to wish you a happy birthday!
I'm so excited to do this! Rarity told me how fun it can be!
Dash said how important it is for us to greet our friends in the other world! It's an honour!
Focus, girls, remember how we practiced it...
inhale
We wish you all the best on this occasion! May you have lots of happy times and good things come your way!
And we wish you'll be able to do your best for yourself too! And, and...
And stay in good health and high spirits all the time! And believe in yourself and who you are!
An' also we wish you great friendship and to have your nearest an' dearest with you to share in the good and deal with anything bad together!
So on behalf of all Equestria we wish you...
Happy Birthday!
We did it, girls.

A very good day to you, human. I come to you on your day of birth with greetings... and thanks.
My good subject Pinkie Pie told me she had taken to congratulating some humans on their birthdays, but even she has her limits. So she asked us for a bit of assistance... and for such friends of ponykind, we feel it right to provide it.
It is thanks to people like you that our land of Equestria, our very world, exists like it does. It is your friendship with us that gave us life. For that, we will forever be grateful and cherish you.
And so, allow me to wish you happiness, peace, prosperity and fulfillment! My hope goes with you that you suffer no hardship in the year ahead, but should a challenge befall you, I am certain your courage and skill will see you rise to conquer it!
Now... where is she...
Here, sister!
Fashionably late, I see! But just in time for the greetings to be given.
Right! I'm ready. Three, two, one...
Happy Birthday!
And now... let us commence the royal party.

Is there a chance to get a commission for custom model made. I don't need a physical model, just an STL or OBJ file.

I've actually been considering doing some commissions for 3D models, since I'm not involved in the printing anymore, but I still do 3D art.Β I just need to do a bit more research and come up with a fair price.Β I'll be posting a model of one of my OCs later today, which will be a good example of the sort of thing I'd be offering.

Yay! We're here, everypony!
Phew, that wasn't long. I told you we could easily make it on hoof!
Speak for yourself, Twi, you didn't have to carry this cake! It's heavy, you know!
Thank you for helping out, Dashie! I couldn't have settled for anything less, after all!
Hi... We're here to... wish you a happy birthday.
You said it! Happy birthday !
And what better way to say "happy birthday" than with a cake?
Why, with a real Apple family apple pie, of course!
With a muffin! Yay!
But these, while pleasant to give, mean little by themselves...
What makes them meaningful are our wishes for you!
Exactly! And we wish for you to have a perfect birthday and a great year ahead of you!
Don't fear any challenges you might face! No matter how bad it may seem, have faith in yourself and keep on being awesome!
And while at it, keep a level head and don't lose sight of what's important! Keep the magic of friendship alive in yourself!
Remember your loved ones and friends, an' don't let little things an' worries get you down!
We hope that you'll find all you seek and be the best you can be!
Don't forget to respect yourself! You're the best at being you, so stay true to what you really are!
And we hope that you'll be at peace with yourself, too... and that the year ahead will be peaceful for you.
And throughout all that, have fun! It isn't fun if you don't have any, after all, and fun it should be!
Just like today! Party on!

Your 3d Models are the best.
It would be great, when you release them, if people used them for quality animations.
Do you rig them, or is that someone we need to do?Β

I am on a mission right now to give as many people a llama for any Lyra Heartstrings art they have done. So... yeah. Here you goΒ

Weeee! Today's the day, everypony!
Pinkie, do we have to teleport in like that every time?
Of course, silly! Else it wouldn't be a proper birthday greeting!
Ahem...
Happy birthday !
And it wouldn't be a proper birthday if Ah didn't bring y'all an apple pie, baked by yours truly!
Let us all give you our best wishes on this occasion and wish you a wonderful year!
I hope that you will not run into any trouble this year and that everything will be as good as it can possibly be.
Don't forget that you're awesome! And that we're all your friends! Keep on rockin'!
Always keep the magic of friendship within you. May it bring you as much joy as it brings us!
And don't ever feel like you're useless or unworthy! Only you have what it takes to live your life, so don't let anyone or anything else get you down!
And of course, don't forget to have fun while at it! And speaking of fun...
It's time to party !
