Desert princess

Desert princess - inspired by Elika from the 2008 game of the Prince of Persia series.

I used Midjourney to get a template for the MakerLab Picture-to-3D-model app. With Hunyuan 3D 3.0 I got a very neat model that retained all the details of the template picture while adding all the missing elements from the hidden side - a step that needs quite a bit of luck and a large number of suitable templates to find the best option. This time, I only had to change the base a bit and fix some issues with unnecessary details. 

I printed the base in black and changed to metallic copper for the actual figure once the base was completely done (about layer 74 at a scale of 100 %). I think the metallic color fits the figurine quite nicely. Furthermore, I used the regular support type. Removing them - as always - takes some time and requires delicacy as several elements are prone to break if too much force is dealt to them (in this case the long sword and clothing details). I usually get better results when printing such figures with the regular supports instead of the tree type. A layer height of 0.16 mm in quality mode was chosen to improve the resolution of fine details. I quite like the resulting model as it looks quite dynamic. I would be happy if other makers would try to print it, as well.
