Design Release: Mist Dragon

Hi everyone, here is the Mist Dragon! This is a continuation of the more heavily sculpted art style I introduced last release, and I'm quite happy with this direction. Hope you all are too!

---

This release introduces a new major change — the wings are separate and click in by hand after printing. This change has two big upsides:

1. Multicolor printing is now around 85-100% faster than the recent stone dragon and monarch dragon on an AMS Bambulab printer. This is achieved by limiting the wings' filament swapping to only the first handful of layers (around 10 layers) rather than requiring swaps throughout entire design (around 165 layers).

2. The new wings are stronger in all directions. Older wings were not as strong on the upright sections nearest the dragon's body, leading to possible breakage when handled roughly by small children during play.

Includes painted unibody and multipart versions. The parted out pieces are the wing pattern, toes, and eyes.

Download this one now on the mist dragon model page or in your memberships folder.
