We bought an inexpensive digital file to both try the model and to test a Snapmaker 2.0 A350T 3D printer. ©3DWithUs – Print & Photo: Max Funkner Nozzle Close Look – 3D Printing in Process – Snapmaker 2.0 A350T
3D Printed Articulated Dragon by McGyBeer 3D printer owners, who were believed to be reluctant to pay for STL files, showed proved this wrong with the massive bang. This model became a sort of a stereotype breaker. 40K paid downloads as of the time of writing this post with thousands of physical models sold across Etsy, eBay, Amazon, and probably other platforms. This particular model is an exceptional, never seen before in the 3D printing community, success story. Maybe there will be a sort of foldable, “click together”, option in the end. One of the biggest reasons why print in place articulated dragons became so popular is technical – you cannot injection mold it and mass produce it cheaply. Take a look at the Cinderwing3D themed articulated dragons’ collection. If real-life creatures have certain features/characteristics that cannot be altered, then with a mystic creature, like a dragon, the imagination can go wild. Here are the main reasons why dragons are popular in the 3D printing community: Many books have been written and movies were shot to feature these magnificent creatures in all possible forms. Needless to say, dragons are one of the most loved mythical creatures. Why Dragons are a Popular Choice for 3D Printing? This model with two separate wings is a very popular model with about 500 makes on Thingiverse. The closest ancestor to the modern popular high-detailed articulated dragons, we would say, is Flexi Dragon by Benchy4Life. These filament and time-wise inexpensive prints were popular in the last decade and we would recommend them now for all 3D print beginners as learning or warm-up models.
In the past, we wrote an article about flexi articulated toy models. Such dragons evolved and became highly detailed and sophisticated, perfect as figurines for resin 3D printing. At first, there were traditional dragon 3D printable designs, like Arya and Adalinda by Louise Driggers.
