Crocodile Figurine 3D print model

This realistic crocodile figurine depicts one of nature’s most ancient and powerful predators in a resting pose. The model showcases the distinctive ridged scales, muscular limbs, and long armored tail characteristic of the species. With its closed jaws and poised body, it captures the calm vigilance of a crocodile basking on the riverbank—ready to strike if provoked.

The model is ideal for collectors, wildlife dioramas, educational exhibits, or as a lifelike display piece for 3D printing enthusiasts. It balances anatomical realism with smooth surface definition, making it both visually accurate and printer-friendly.

The initial 3D form of this model was generated with the assistance of AI tools, after which it was extensively refined and manually detailed in Blender and other 3D editing software.

Please note that the model is primarily designed for textured versions (OBJ + MTL in ZIP archive), allowing for a rich and visually detailed result when used with color-supported 3D printing or digital rendering. The non-textured version (STL, 3MF) may lack some surface details visible in the textured formats. The available formats include STL, OBJ, MTL, 3MF, FBX, and BLEND files, provided together in a ZIP archive, along with standalone STL and OBJ files for viewer compatibility.

Technical Features and Printing Recommendations:

Recommended print settings: 0.12–0.18 mm layer height for balanced detail

Supports: Not required (model optimized for flat, stable printing)

Suggested materials: PLA, ABS, or resin for high detail and durability

Recommended model size: 150–200 mm in length for natural proportions

Minimum print time: ~8–12 hours depending on printer and scale

Material usage: ~80–120 g depending on size and infill

Scaling Note: This model is designed in millimeters (mm). If it appears too small when imported into your slicer, ensure your software is set to mm units. If needed, scale the model up 100x if the slicer defaults to meters instead.
