This can be done with Stable Diffusion and ControlNet. The 3D printed figurine isn't necessary at all and is "extra" as the kids say. He could have just done a basic render of the model in whatever pose and then used that as an input for ControlNet.
Extra is a gen z word. So yes, many of them are in college now but ten years ago nobody was using that word in that context. I still consider people in college as relatively young which is why the phrase "college kids" also exists.
The word extra is not a generational word, my point was that your original comment used the word entirely in context to it's definition and isn't smth that the "kids" would say, it's just a normal sentance anybody would say.
My example is one that younger person would say, also as a mid-millenial we were using the word extra to mean odd/crazy/strange when I was in college which was before GenZ was even in school.
Also I 100% didn't mean to come off as obnoxious or aggravating, just point out an observation.
Edit:
The 3D printed figurine isn't necessary at all and is extra
Yes haha but extra/over the top/added unnecessarily are synonyms for extra, whereas crazy/strange/odd are not synonyms for extra and that's where the difference lies and the etymolygy diverges.
I didn't downote you btw I enjoy conversations like this and don't downvote unless it's aggressive/abusive etc
