Before You Buy: What to Look for in a 3D Printed Dragon

So, you've decided you need a 3D printed dragon in your life. Who wouldn't want a mystical creature perched on their desk, guarding their treasures? But before you go out and buy the first dragon you see, there are a few things you should consider. Not all dragons are created equal, you know!

Is the Print Smooth?

One of the first things you should look for in a 3D printed dragon is the smoothness of the print. A high-quality dragon will have a clean, polished finish that makes it look like it just flew out of a fantasy novel. If the print looks rough or unfinished, it might be a sign that the dragon was hastily made.

Are the joints clean?

When you’re looking at articulated 3D printed dragons, the quality of the joints makes a huge difference. Poor-quality prints often have rough loops, uneven edges, or joints that don’t move smoothly - and it shows. Our dragons are printed with precision so the joints are clean, neat, and flexible, giving you a smooth, seamless movement that looks just as good as it feels.

How Much Does it Weigh?

Now, let's talk about weight. Cheap 3D printed dragons can be so light that they feel like they're hollow inside. You don't want a dragon that feels like it will break if you so much as look at it the wrong way. A good quality dragon will have a solid weight to it, making it feel sturdy and durable.

Do the colours stand out?

At 3D Fantasy, we spend a lot of time hunting down the most unique and eye-catching filament colours to make sure our dragons truly stand out from the rest. From shimmering pearlescents and metallic tones to rare, limited-edition blends, we carefully choose shades that bring each dragon’s personality to life. You won’t find our colour combinations everywhere - we hand-pick them to make every piece feel special, magical, and unlike anything you’ll see in mass-produced prints.

Has it Been Hand Painted?

Another thing to consider is whether the dragon has been hand painted. Hand painting adds a level of detail and uniqueness to each dragon that you just can't get with mass-produced products. Plus, it shows that the creator put time and effort into making your dragon special.

Why Choose Quality?

Now, we know that high-quality 3D printed dragons might cost a bit more than the cheap ones you see advertised everywhere. But trust us, it's worth it. When you buy a dragon from a seller who prides themselves on creating top-notch products, you're investing in something that will bring you joy for years to come.

By supporting a small local business like ours, you're not just getting a great dragon – you're also getting top-notch customer service. We stand behind everything we make, ensuring that you're happy with your purchase. Plus, you'll have the satisfaction of knowing that you're supporting a passionate creator who puts their heart and soul into each dragon they make.

So, next time you're in the market for a 3D printed dragon, remember to look for quality over quantity. Your dragon deserves to be the best of the best, just like you do!
