Not a great sculpt but still going to print to test a hollow print (no infill). Also printing as two parts (base and model) to test keying size. I have only had my printer about 4-5 months so still have a lot to learn.

A little over 7 inches tall so see you in about 28 hours.

Hay thick are you making the shell. I've never had the nerve to below 10% infill. Most of what I make is more functional so my normal infill is 90%.

I am using CURA's default settings. I think that is .8mm but not 100% sure. A test to see how solid the model feels afterwards. Little figurine so nothing stressful in its future unless I drop it.

Well that took 32 hours to print but overall pretty happy with the print. So so on the model itself.

I did break the canines when I was removing the supports so another data point when I make these models.

Excellent...well done...fwiw i'd paint using "see-through" type paints/coloured lacquer so that black shinyness partly shines through the laquer.

 

[Oscar56]

Thank you. So far I have painted one piece and I'm not very good at it so we'll see how it goes.

Next, I want to do a werewolf warrior in Zbrush. We'll see how that works out. I need more practice in Zbrush. I primarily use Blender and I forget how to use the other software if I don't touch it for a few months.

Looks nice! 32 hrs tho, whew! Just how big is it, hard to tell from pic?

 

[Oscar56]

Its a little over 7 inches tall. The design was just not optimized for a 3d print. A lot of support structure was needed.

That's where an item that everyone is familiar with i.e. a dollar bill or anything placed within the same photo to be used for scale/reference

I sometimes do that when I do really small work, like these two names I did on my scrollsaw -

 

[Rincewind]

Cool, but what is the coin ?

 

[Oscar56]

David,

Wow. That is crazy small for scroll work. I would have snapped that at the very beginning.

US 5 cent nickle coin. = 0.835 in. or 21.21 mm in some other weird measurement.

Yes, a US nickel.
