In the deep vaults of ancient oceans, long before the rise of mortals, strange armored beings thrived. This model captures the essence of a trilobite-like creature, with a segmented carapace, spined appendages, and layered armor that seems both prehistoric and alien. Its form carries echoes of ancient Earth while suggesting an origin from stranger worlds, making it suitable for tabletop encounters, dioramas, or as a collectible creature model.
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.
Technical Features and Printing Recommendations:
Recommended print settings: 0.1–0.15 mm layer height for detail preservation
Supports: Required for legs and underside
Recommended materials: PLA, ABS, or resin for highest fidelity
Minimum print time: ~180 minutes (depending on scale and slicer settings)
Estimated material use: 25–40 g at default scale
Suggested print size: 60–80 mm in body length for best detail balance
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.
