3D model description

Print-in-place Articulated Dragon!!

Huge, very flexible, and printed in one piece without supports. Just the mustache needs to be assembled after printing (see video example).

It can be scaled up or down as much as you want (the limit is your printer capabilities).

Multicolor 3MF file included!

For resin printing, check out Uncle Jessy's video with lots of tips and recommendations.

For delicate prints, such as tiny sizes, metal sintering or just if you need extra strength for the horns, I've added the "Short Horns" version.

Disclaimer: The Dragon doesn't stand upright. Some pictures have been taken using a metal wire stand for display purposes.

3D printing settings

A good first layer is mandatory for the print to succeed. Be sure your printer is calibrated and you have good bed adhesion. I recommend a slow and thick first layer (8 mm/s and 0.3 mm).
Good layer cooling is also recommended, as it prevents curling and warping on overhangs.
