This printable pony 3D model was inspired by "My Little Pony" character Rainbow Dash. I gifted it to my friend who is a big MLP fan.

Design Process
Concept
The initial reference is a "My Little Pony" character Rainbow Dash.
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.
