🐉Auralith, the Crystal Hatchling🐉

Hello everyone,

With the release of the new season of House of the Dragon, I decided to create this little dragon companion: Auralith, the Crystal Hatchling.

The model shown in the photos was printed in PLA at 0.12 mm layer height and hand-painted using acrylic paints. Auralith combines a cute hatchling design with crystal-themed details, making it a fun display piece for dragon lovers, fantasy fans, and painting enthusiasts alike.

If you have any suggestions or feedback, I'd be happy to hear them and continue improving the model in Blender.

Recommended Print Settings:

Material: PLA or PETG
Layer Height: 0.12 mm, 0.16 mm, or 0.20 mm (recommended: 0.12 mm for maximum detail)
Supports: Tree Supports (Build Plate Only)
First Layer Expansion: 5 mm
Support Wall Loops: 2
Top Interface Layers: 3
Tree Support Branch Diameter: 4 mm

I spent a lot of time designing, sculpting, testing, and refining this model, and I'm excited to finally share it with the community. I hope you enjoy printing and painting Auralith. If you print one, I'd love to see your results, so feel free to share photos of your finished prints.

Happy printing!
