Skymane & Rustmane (Hero Forge 3D figurine)

I'm all giddy, because Hero Forge (https://www.heroforge.com/) has Cyber Monday sale, and you can buy their digital figurines for $4 each! I designed and bought Laluna riding Rustmane (originally BadLuckPup from Berit's WolfQuest!). I have a friend who has a 3D-printer, and he said he can print this for me, yay!

Even though you can't make your characters spot-on in Hero Forge (Laluna's clothes are different, and wolves don't wear saddles...), I'm quite happy with the result. Now I can't wait for the printed figurine!

If you want to go see the 3D-figure from all angles, go here:

I gave Laluna an elf-name, "Skymane". It's made after her ooooold finnish EQ-name, "Taivasharja", which I happened to find in a text file when I was browsing some very old folders on an external hard drive. I didn't remember her having an EQ-name, so I was surprised to find it!

I see.  So it will be the same size as my Goldspice 65mm - abouts  (which is 3 1/2 inches tall) -eh?  And it really should come out just as smooth as the digital outline.

This truly is cool! sad that I don't have characters that ride wolves! what color the wolf will be? a random wolf or one of her Wolfquest wolves?...

Thanks!

@Tah-Marien: I think the surface won't be as smooth when it comes out of the printer, but I'm nonetheless excited to have my OC as a figurine! I actually asked my friend to print this in about double the regular size (maybe 60mm?), because I don't plan to use it in D&D.

@Wildfire: Yeah, it's fun to try out different poses and expressions on the characters, even if there aren't that many options. I hadn't thought of using it for drawing, but it could work well for that too!

Oh wow, this is very cool! That website can be great for references as well, it has a bunch of good poses. I just tried making Wildfire, and yeah you can't really get it spot on (the expressions in particular seem lacking, but that's probably due to the size - 30 mm isn't a lot)  but still very fun!

     So Cool.    Big wow.   What size is it going to print out at?  A doll/ventriloquist head took 48 hrs to print.

*The jokes on me.  I thought it was a real sculpture (it will be I understand, now) and I was in awe of someone able to made their clay surface so smooth. I would love me one of those 3D printers.*
