A weekee-greeting to all Hivers!! It's been a while since I last posted on Hive, there are many things which have changed that I eventually will tell you guys about. Many issues regarding the country have also influenced in my life in a way or another, making me and specially my parents take some decisions to be able to get adapted to this harsh situation. Keeping up with my career has been one of these problems due to the fuel crisis and lack of internet signal. My time lately has been distributed between the old and new priorities, one of them being working for holozing of course ;> (there's plenty of new stuff behind the cameras hehe!)
Well, no more yapping, let's get this post on the road >:D!
You may be thinking "No way... another freekin dragons post..."
I know XD these dragons are never tired of getting in the shots... BUT, this post is special ;) hopefully won't let you get bored with this one 'cause it's not just 3D Drazing... it's 3D-PRINTED DRAZING LET'S GOOO!!!
Unfortunately I have to say some boring stuff before getting to "the chicken of the rice with chicken" how we call it here, because I need to give you some context. Last year I decided to invest in a 3D printer, which arrived this march.
I spent the first days building it with the help of my parents and learning what was necessary to get started.
Once settled, the first test I did was the classic Benchy. It's a tradition of 3D-printing users to make a Benchy as a first test.
It came out looking marvelous.
Everything was on its place, now time to get serious. But my mind was empty of ideas about what to make. Weird. Back then when I thought about investing it seemed to be full of great ideas... Bet this happens to many of us. But Drazing hurried and saved me from that void :3
So I took its model and posed it in a cute happy-baby-doggy way in blender.
Then I started separating the pieces, all gray and white,
my printer is mono-color, gotta make one at a time.
Made these holes and spaces for the claws to be glued in later,
this whole belly mouth piece took some time to get separated.
All set, I exported the STLs,
hopefully not missing anything else.
Software welcomed me, anxious to be used,
Imported the files, ready to get fused.
Statistics and settings filled my screen,
Was really excited when clicked the green!
Among others it firmly stood up like a real hero
for 6 continued hours not at all under sub-zero...
Okay, enough technical poetry.
Couldn't wait to finish this creation,
my eyes were not done full of glory
when I took it out the plate,
it was time to contemplate
who came out of my imagination!
Aaand here there are all of the pieces together :3
Time to glue and paint! started with the easy part, sticking the claws and the belly to the body.
Something like this will never look like an actual 3D character in real life, but looked great for one of my first prints!
It stopped looking so great when my manual artist skills joined the server...
Uhh... guess it looks okay??
It looks traumatized.
Hopefully a little white dot lightened its day and MY day up. Looking way better now...
I'm sorry peeps, I'm not this kind of artist, I'm not 
But hey it isn't that bad, it looks awesome... IT IS AWESOME YEYEYYE I have an irl holomon in my work desk :3 (my first irl holomon hehe...)
Hope you enjoyed this post, read ya on the next one, hopefully will be soon now that I have a bit more chance for Hive :D!
All images belong to me.
