📝 Description:
This sculpture represents a gorilla in a meditation position, seated in a posture inspired by Buddha, with hands open in a gesture of calm and prayer. The contrast between the natural power of the gorilla and the serenity of the posture creates a strong piece, both symbolic and soothing.
The style is part of a contemporary figurative sculpture, blending animal art and Zen spiritual inspiration. The volumes are full, balanced, with a stable posture that evokes inner strength, wisdom, and self-control.
It is a statuette that invites both contemplation and a discreet smile.
Perfect as a modern decorative object, it easily finds its place on a shelf, desk, or furniture, bringing an original and quirky Zen touch.
🖨️ Printing Tips
- Very beautiful rendering in PLA Matte, black PLA, stone or marbled
- Printing with no supports recommended
- A fine layer height improves texture rendering
- Can be easily resized according to the desired space
🛠️ Tips for perfect adhesion in 3D Printed:
Clean your build plate thoroughly before each print. Grease residues, dust, or fingerprints can impair adhesion and cause warping.
Check build plate calibration: a well-leveled build plate ensures a uniform and well-adhered first layer.
Use an appropriate adhesion surface: depending on your material, apply a thin layer of glue stick, an adhesive spray, or a specific tape (e.g., Kapton, BuildTak).
Set the build plate temperature correctly to promote adhesion according to the material used (PLA, ABS, PETG, etc.).
Reduce the first layer print speed: a slower speed allows better filament adhesion to the build plate.
Plan for a skirt or a brim in your slicer to stabilize the first layer and limit warping.
