Skull Tumbler
Skull Tumbler with Stainless Steel Insert
This Skull Tumbler features a 3D printed outer shell designed to hold a stainless steel tumbler insert. The exterior showcases a bold gothic skull with deep sculpted relief, smooth printable geometry, and strong surface definition, making it ideal for painting, metallic finishes, chrome effects, or dark fantasy color schemes.
The model is designed so the stainless steel insert slides inside the 3D printed shell, combining the durability and insulation of stainless steel with the creative freedom of a fully customizable printed exterior.
Perfect for makers who want a dramatic, high-end tumbler without sacrificing usability. The relief depth is optimized for clean prints and easy post-processing such as sanding, priming, painting, and clear coating.
Features:
- 3D printed outer skull shell
- Designed to fit a stainless steel tumbler insert
- Deep, paint-friendly gothic relief
- Smooth geometry for reliable printing
- Scalable to fit different insert sizes
- Ideal for fantasy, gothic, and skull-themed finishes
Great for personal use, gifts, or custom-painted display tumblers.
Painting Tip: Start with a solid black undercoat to enhance depth, then lightly dry-brush silver over the raised details to bring out the skull texture. Accents were added using Cerulean Blue for contrast. For the final finish, apply a 1:1 craft resin clear coat, which creates a high-gloss, mirror-like surface with a realistic silver effect while also making the tumbler water-resistant.
Finish Note: The resin clear coat provides a high-gloss, durable, water-resistant finish suitable for everyday use. Hand wash only. Not dishwasher safe.
When fitting the stainless steel tumbler, push it down as far as possible for a secure fit. The stainless steel insert is the drinking surface and should not be painted. Only the outer 3D-printed shell is intended to be painted.

Your artistry never ceases to amaze me. The eyes! OMG!
Glad you like it! The shine comes from craft resin, which really brings out the details. The white eye highlights were hand-painted with a fine brush. I only use food-grade resin, so the tumbler is hand-wash safe. The small shadow line at the top is intentional it makes it easy to remove the outer 3D-printed shell from the stainless insert. Some makers even leave it unglued for a modular setup. Cheers!
Request double sided so you can see design no matter what hand you pick it up with?
I'll update soon to give you this option.
