Sculptural Dolphin on Wave and Marine Base
Print Profile(1)
Description
Hello everyone! I created this model because I love the sea and wanted something elegant and detailed to put on my desk.
It is a sculpture that captures a dynamic moment: a dolphin leaping out of a stylized wave, all supported by a cylindrical base decorated with a marine bas-relief.
You can see the small fish and corals engraved on the base. It's a noticeable piece.
As you can see from the photo, I printed mine with "Sand" filament which enhances all the details and perfectly hides the layer lines.

Print Notes:
- Recommended Filament: I used sand-effect PLA filament (or a neutral matte color) for a sculptural look.
- Supports: IMPORTANT. Due to the dynamic pose of the dolphin and the shape of the wave, supports are necessary. I recommend "tree" supports. They are easier to remove and leave fewer marks on the underlying details.( BEFORE REMOVING SUPPORTS, LET THE MODEL COOL DOWN AND REMOVE GENTLY WITH POINTED NIPPERS WITH GREAT PATIENCE )
- Infill: 10-15% is more than enough for a decorative piece.
- Layer Height: 0.16mm or 0.20mm for a good compromise between detail and print time.
