The Emerging Culture of Sharing 'I Did It!' Moments Through 3D Pens Begins to Take Shape

〜Continuing to Offer Creative Opportunities for Families and Beginners During Summer Vacation〜

The artwork-sharing website '3D Hiroba' has surpassed 50 featured posts of user-submitted 'I did it!' moments created with 3D pens.

What's emerging is not a competition for skill, but a budding culture of sharing the joy of creation—where one person's 'I did it!' inspires another to think, 'Maybe I can do it too' or 'I want to try.' In anticipation of the summer vacation season for family crafting and independent study projects, the site is launching a submission campaign.

50 Submissions Reveal the Joy of Creation Among Families and Beginners

The featured works include not only highly polished 3D models, but also first-time attempts with a 3D pen, collaborative parent-child projects, creations started from traceable templates, and handmade gifts—showcasing diverse forms of creative expression.

Examples of featured works:

- An original blue dragon - A caricature portrait for Father's Day - A cheese sculpture, a mom's favorite - A first-ever 3D pen creation

A 3D pen is not a tool for instantly achieving perfect shapes, but one that encourages experimentation and gradual refinement. The creative process itself is an essential part of the experience.

These 50 submissions represent an initial accumulation of shared accomplishments—transforming personal 'I did it!' moments into inspiration for others to begin their own creative journey.

A Space to Share Achievements and Inspire Further Participation

The goal is not to create a platform for judging skill levels. Instead, it's about turning one person's achievement into motivation for someone else to think, 'I could do that too' or 'I want to give it a try.' By sharing creations, families and beginners feel more confident to take the next creative step.

3D Hiroba is intentionally designed to nurture this cycle of participation.

Reference: International Research on Creativity and Self-Esteem

International studies have shown a link between children's creative activities and self-esteem. Mak and Fancourt (2019) analyzed data from 6,209 11-year-olds in the UK, examining the relationship between frequency of engagement in arts activities and self-esteem scores. They found that children who frequently participated in music, drawing, crafting, and reading tended to have higher self-esteem scores.

Future Plans

Fermento Tokyo Inc. will continue to design seasonal initiatives and accessible entry points for families and beginners through 3D Hiroba.

Beyond simply selling 3D pens, the company aims to cultivate a cycle of participation:

Create ↓ Share ↓ Receive Encouragement ↓ Inspire Others to Try

By nurturing this cycle, they aim to build an environment where families and beginners can enjoy hands-on creation.
