Trout Fish - Rainbow Trout — Fully Articulated Flexy Trout Fish Pre-Painted + Optional Glass Eyes
This articulated trout is styled after a classic rainbow trout, featuring a natural body shape, speckled patterning, and smooth segmented movement that gives it a lifelike flow from head to tail. The sculpt captures that familiar trout profile while still being clean, strong, and easy to print.
Each section articulates smoothly, allowing the fish to bend, pose, or hang naturally while maintaining solid structure and detail right off the build plate.
This version is painted to resemble a rainbow trout, but the model works great with any fish pattern or color variation depending on your filament choices.
👁️ Uses 8mm Glass Eyes 📄 Trout 8mm Glass Eyes Available for Members Only
🎨 Filaments Used:
WISDREAM PLA Military Rainbow (main body)

⚙️ Requires minimal supports — only on critical regions. Designed to keep supports very light while maintaining clean detail and articulation.
⚠️ Multi-color articulating prints can be more sensitive to adhesion. Make sure your build plate is properly clean before printing. If needed, use a brim or raft for extra hold.
📸 Perfect for fishing fans, river scene displays, or experimenting with different trout patterns and custom colorways. 🎣

WISDREAM PLA Military Rainbow (main body) MatterHackers PLA Black Peakace Skin PLA
Nice! Which filament did you used for the rainbow? (Rainbow glaze from Ziro looks similar, But this is a bit shiny)
what is that rainbow filament called. I really like that color. I checked amazon and cant find it. i even tried typinf rainbow glaze pla filament.
Nice! Awesome colors
What filaments did you use for this print, it looks awesome!
Awesome! Have you thought about doing other fish species?
Is it possible to get other trout? Brown trout? Brook Trout?
Thank you for the suggestion! Brown trout and brook trout are definitely possible. Since they are still trout, the body shape is very similar, so some members have already been repainting the current trout to look like different trout species. I may repaint and add those versions to the listing later. No timeline promises yet since I have a lot of requests on my list, but I’ll definitely keep them in mind.
Thank you - appreciate that. I had repainted some, just the stripe with the rainbow makes it difficult to recreate the Brown or Brook! Either way love them.
Would this articulate ok at a smaller percentage?
you can scale it down to 75% that will fit 6mm eyes. you can go more however the fins can become weak. I'm working on keychain that way they can be printed really small.
is the eyes same as the bass I don't see eyes for trout in the download sheet?
They are almost identical slight shade different I’ll upload them today. But Bass eyes work too.
Thank you
They are up, Trout Glass Eyes 8mm. You're welcome
