Printable 3D Dragon Model
Alena Zhukova
Project Description
I design this printable dragon 3D model using client's reference.
Whether you need a unique minifigure, a custom accessory, or a complete themed set, I bring your ideas to life in a way that’s both visually accurate and technically optimized for 3D printing.

Design Process
Concept
The initial reference is a hand-drawn picture.
Reference Image Preparation
I generated the main reference image with GPT Image 2, then adapted it for 3D generation by creating a texture-free 3D render and a character sheet with multiple views.
3D Model Generation
I used Hunyuan 3D 3.0 to generate the initial 3D model from the prepared references.
Sculpting & Print Optimization
I refined the model in Blender, corrected its forms and proportions, sculpted missing details, and optimized the geometry to meet 3D-printing requirements.
Presentation Image Creation
I rendered the final 3D model and enhanced the image with Nano Banana Pro to recreate controlled studio lighting, the appearance of photopolymer resin, and the required presentation background.
