Citipati oviraptor 3d print

[Tony G.]

My 3D print of a full size Citipati oviraptor skull.

3d files came from:  https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/various/life-size-citipati-oviraptor-skull-and-cervical-vertebrae.

 

I had no idea how to paint when I started this.  A lot of Google searching on how to paint and experimentation.  Also printed Life size baby T-rex skeleton, which is about  7' long.  I started 3d printing about a year ago when my wife and kids bought me an Ender 3 Pro for Christmas.  Pretty soon I will have my own dinosaur museum in the house.

Very nicely done! Excellent job

Looks pretty real to me. 

Nice work.

Really great job. What kind of paint did you end up using? How did you apply it?

[Mahnmut]

Cool!

I have been looking for a Oviraptor 3d scan for a long time and ended up building my own using ct data. And now there it is.

Great paintjob!

Best regards,

Wonderful display model.  You did a great job.

Really great job indeed. I would like to see some more different angles of it and if possible the baby T.rex too. 

 

I don’t where you live but it not often you get a bison looking in at your window .

I mostly used the following web site for guidance on painting the skull.  Along with some experimentation with different colors.

Very interesting. I've saved that link for when I go to 3-D print some fossils. Thank you!
