So I've been doing a lot of painting recently...

[ID: Two miniature recreations, one of the master sword and the other of hylian shield, both from Legend of Zelda series. The master sword is in a stone pedestal on a round base, both of which have engravings. The shield is propped up against the stone pedestal. End ID.]

I've spent the last few months working on this birthday present for my wonderful DM and now that it's in his hands, I can finally share pictures!! This was a large but very fun project, keeping quiet about it for so long was tough 😅 There are 183 pieces, all obtained from Thingiverse. All but one of them were printed on my Elegoo Mars Pro, and everything painted so far was done by me!

[ID: All slides are different pictures of dungeons and dragons miniatures, most of which have been painted. The first picture is all 183 miniatures together in boxes. A bit less than half of them are painted, the rest are plain gray. In the second picture, there are several tables of different sizes, with people standing around them. In the third, there are people in rowboats, piles of bones, an anchor, and some vines. In the fourth, assorted monsters. In the fifth, a variety of animals, including a lion, a unicorn, a coyote, and a crab. In the sixth, there are cobblestone walls, crates, wheelbarrows, and a pile of firewood. The last picture has several larger miniatures, most of which are unpainted. There are gelatinous cubes, barren trees, an elephant with another miniature riding on its back, a stone giant, a guardian dragon, and a compass rose. End ID.]

These were such a journey to make but I'm absolutely in love with them!!

The file for these two is "Armadillo Lizard - Articulated" by Trejager on Thingiverse. They each took 8 hours to print! I ran into some issues getting them to print, and after I printed the first one (the green and yellow), I dropped it and broke the back two legs after an hour 😭 I still need to go out and buy some glue and try to fix him, BUT in the meantime I edited the file and made the other one! I love them very much and am so happy with them!!

(Fun fact, these both used the same roll of filament! It's a very cool multicolored filament I was gifted for Christmas.)

Just added a few new items to my shop and I'm planning on adding a few more soon! Even just reblogging this post helps and is very much appreciated. You can check out my whole shop here!
