Ancient Beholder - Classic D&D Monsters

I am just a Hobbyist. I 3D print organic models for fun. Started with an A1 Mini about 3 years ago and just have not looked back. The models that I create are AI Generative assist. I am learning blender but get a functional foundation from AI to then clean up and reshape in Blender. All Models from me are test printed multiple times with different filament. I try not to use the meta or most expensive filament for test prints. All photos from me will be as is, no paint, no primer, just removed supports and took the pics. If there is excessive wispy stringing, I may hit it with a heat gun to clean that up, but everything is photographed as it comes off the printer.

For additional examples of prints I have done (not my models) see Odd_Zone5925 on Reddit. I have printed everything under the sun; from funtional parts in a mechanical setting to DnD minis and dragons, masks, signs, Hueforges, lamps, etc. If there is a way, I print it. I really love the hobby and just want to toss a few things out to the community that I made myself. Cheers to everyone!
 

Ancient Beholder

I created this guy for a campaign awhile ago and wanted to share it with everyone. He was a deep dweller, under the city in a lost temple and was slowly gathering fanatics and feeding on them. Dark magic, cunning enemy with a lair full of traps. When you fight a beholder, you fight the very world in which it lives! It was a legendary battle that sadly claimed the entire party. Total wipe. But memories were made and stories lived on.

As shown this model is 80mm tall but during the test prints I tested 80, 50, and 20, and the supports and model all printed exactly the same so scale away to whatever you need. I changed the print profile from one I was using earlier to help make supports easier to remove.

As always, feedback is 100% welcome and suggestions or requests can be added as well.

Cheers all and happy printing!

Just want to end on one note. The models that you find here are set in very specific print profile settings. These are incredibly clean print profiles designed to do well with the models being shown. You are more than welcome to use these print profiles to print other models.

To use a print profile on another model of your choice:

• Open the 3mf that you want to use.
• add a plate, and open a new model as geometry only on the new plate. It will automatically apply the same settings from the project to that model. 
• Slice the model to ensure there are no conflicts or non-manifold errors.
• Print!
• You can also save these settings in your user presets to use in the future without the hoops.
