3D Dragon Sculpt for Printing

About the project

I am looking for a skilled digital sculptor to create a highly detailed dragon-type design that I can send straight to my 3D printer. You may work in ZBrush, Blender, or any comparable sculpting package—use whichever tool lets you achieve crisp scales, claws, and wings without compromising printability. The final model has to be watertight, manifold, and free of non-manifold edges so it slices cleanly in Cura and PrusaSlicer. I will be printing on both FDM and resin machines, so keep wall thicknesses sensible, undercuts supported, and overhangs within realistic limits or broken into keyed parts. Exact overall size is still open; once I see your first pass we’ll lock dimensions, but assume something in the small-to-medium desktop display range for now. Style-wise I lean toward epic fantasy realism, yet I’m happy to review any creative flourishes you feel elevate the creature. Deliverables • Final print-ready STL (or OBJ) • Native working file (.ZTL, .blend, etc.) • Optional split parts if needed for larger prints • One quick turnaround for minor tweaks after test slice Acceptance criteria • No mesh errors on Netfabb or Meshlab checks • Detail holds at 0.1 mm layer height • Keys/pegs fit without visible seams when assembled If this sounds like the sort of dragon you’d enjoy bringing to life, let’s talk timeframe and get started.
