When the first snow fell in Aevaris, street vendors started selling warm pastries and little lucky charms. One winter, a child swore they saw a tiny land shark waddling between stalls, wearing a fluffy hood and wagging its tail like a dog. It stole nothing. It only followed the smell of sweets and laughed whenever someone laughed first. By the end of the season, people began leaving small trinkets outside their doors, hoping the “Cozy Shark” would visit again.

This model depicts a cute “land shark” creature in an oversized winter hoodie with a fluffy fur trim. The character has a wide, joyful grin with small teeth, a big tongue sticking out, and large cartoon-like eyes that give it a friendly expression. The hoodie includes stitched panel lines, a star patch on the side, and scattered decorative bits on the fur and tail. The creature stands on four short legs with a rounded body, plus a raised tail that adds a playful silhouette. Accessories include small charm-like items, including a tag hanging from the side and a pendant-like detail at the front, adding extra personality for textured versions.

The proportions are designed for display and printing durability. The body is chunky, the feet are broad enough to stand securely, and most details sit on the surface rather than relying on very thin parts. It works as a desk collectible, a gift print, a fun tabletop companion, or a painting project with lots of color potential.

This model is based on an original concept and design. The initial 3D form was generated with the assistance of AI tools, after which it was extensively refined and manually detailed in Blender and other 3D editing software. This workflow ensures the figure maintains its unique character and meets the standards of precision, structure, and print-readiness required for high-quality 3D printing.

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 formats included are STL, OBJ, MTL, 3MF, FBX, and BLEND inside a ZIP archive.

Technical features and printing recommendations

Recommended print technology

Resin printers for crisp fur trim, stitches, and small charm details.

FDM printers work well thanks to the chunky body and stable stance.

Suggested resin settings

Layer height: 0.05–0.08 mm

Orientation: slight tilt (10–20°) to keep the face and hoodie trim clean

Supports: light supports under the chin, tongue, tail tip, and hanging tag

Hollowing: optional, 2–3 mm walls with drain holes under the belly if you scale it large

Suggested FDM settings

Layer height: 0.12–0.20 mm, 0.4 mm nozzle

Walls: 2–3 perimeters, infill 12–18%

Supports: optional supports under tongue and tail, and for the hanging tag if needed

Material: PLA for easy printing, PETG for a tougher toy-like result

Recommended size, time, material

Recommended height: 80–120 mm for a desk collectible, or 140–170 mm for a larger display

Supports: recommended for best results on face and accessory overhangs

Minimum print time to plan for: 300 minutes

Material estimate at ~110 mm: Resin 60–110 g or Filament 70–130 g, depending on hollowing 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.
