Printed in Polymaker cosPLA and painted with a mix of citadel and Vallejo by hand, with a final top coat of turbo dork motherlode because I *love* that stuff 😭

haven't posted on here in a hot minute... Here's a custom Vaporeon I painted for myself last week :3 based on art I did of Myrrh (my Sona) as a vaporeon ages ago.

latest 3D printer/painter project: Dolly from Arknights :) here's the after/before painting. I was so extremely happy with the print quality, it was my first time using adaptive layers and he came out like resin! Happy So Long Adele rerun and happy 5th anniversary! #arknights #アークナイツ

haven't posted in a while but Amiya's sword from Arknights :) Finally finished painting it today, I didn't originally wanna paint it but I struggled with the gluing so I just kinda accepted my fate. Happy (late) Birthday, Amiya!! 🐇🎉

back with another 3d print + paint, Arknights' originium slug :) it's hard to make these guys look like the sprites though

ToyAgumon is done! The gloss mod podge wasn't as glossy as I expected but oh well :)
October 24, 2024 at 10:58 PM
currently working on a toyagumon!! He's basically done but I'm waiting on his topcoat, I'll get a finished picture tomorrow

And last one, a gift for my precious friend @/tallowcat :3

Here's the other big one- Flametail's VR sword from her Sports for All skin. This one took a few weeks, mainly because the blade parts kept breaking (with no thanks to my dad who swung it around and broke it like twice)
It's still on my wall too :3

Here's the Giratina that literally lives in my PC lol, Protopasta Nebula HTPLA again, with the clouds transparent but painted to look stormy. I know it's risky to put plastic in my PC but that's where the HTPLA comes in :3

Getting close to the end here (or the start ig since I'm going backwards), here's a Shiny Porygon, the model is their Pokemon Rumble model, lightly edited to make sure the parts were all connected and everything.

Speaking of Spyro, here's a lil one I painted for Mum. It's still in her room, I've been meaning to go get it so he doesn't get lost.

My favourite piece I've done so far- Malefor's statue from the Legend of Spyro! This model is actually from the Well of Souls in The Eternal Night, but I painted it to look like the Dragon Temple statue. Painted with Citadel's Aggaros Dunes and Casandora Yellow, and finished off with some moss.

A Salandit figure again for Quibby - his limbs are so thin, I definitely don't recommend printing one of these guys on FDM lol
More Siddament Matte Banana and a generic transparent I painted for the flames

Arlecchino's brooch for my friend @karaikou.bsky.social, her art is also fantastic please give her a follow too 😭
This was the first time I tried dry brushing and honestly I was really happy with it lol
October 18, 2024 at 3:48 AM
teenie shiny minior keychain I meant to put on my phone and didn't get around to it bc the eye loop wouldn't stay in lol
October 18, 2024 at 3:45 AM
Avywenna, Ceobe and Saga beans from Arknights again, by reac! Please follow them, their sculpts are fantastic 💕 @artreac.bsky.social
October 18, 2024 at 3:43 AM
Scene's Lens buggy from Arknights :3 actually one of the first things I printed but it took me months to get around to painting it.
October 18, 2024 at 3:32 AM
Gup from Risk of Rain, printed him overnight and painted him at art therapy lol, still very happy with how the colours came out :)
October 18, 2024 at 3:31 AM
Shiny Slither Wing figure! My most colourful paint job, it took me a day for each part and multiple parts needed multiple layers of paint, especially the wings.
October 18, 2024 at 3:30 AM
Plume's Halberd from Arknights! I modelled this completely from scratch and it's definitely my biggest "build" so far. The blade ended up proportionately small but I blame my ender's build plate size lol
October 18, 2024 at 3:28 AM
Sneasler figure! I got the colours a bit too vibrant for her so I ended up going overboard with weathering and snow effects and I think it ended up amazing. I'm so proud of the base on this one, especially since I started off with transparent filament and applied ink to get the ice effect :)
October 18, 2024 at 3:26 AM
Ogerpon figure!! This one was a test for blending paints, so many shades of green... The lines ended up smearing when I applied the mod podge to seal so I went over it again with a marker. Bit messy but she lives on my desk :3
