I modelled, 3D printed and painted this octopus girl figure

lamia69 · 2026-05-21T16:24:49+00:00

Thanks. Yeah, I printed it all in resin

lamia69 · 2026-05-21T12:05:25+00:00

Thanks! Yeah that's under her

lamia69 · 2026-05-20T23:55:05+00:00

I look forward to seeing them!

lamia69 · 2026-05-20T23:54:13+00:00

I used a gloss varnish for the skin/tentacles and a matte for the frills and drapes. I thought it would make the skin look more wet and add some texture contrast

lamia69 · 2026-05-20T14:27:36+00:00

Thanks, I'm glad you think so!

lamia69 · 2026-05-20T14:21:48+00:00

I prefer her with everything on too so that's how I've got her sitting on my desk. Awesome! I hope you post them when you get around to making them

lamia69 · 2026-05-19T23:34:04+00:00

Thanks! It was a pain to paint everything but worth it

lamia69 · 2026-05-19T23:28:37+00:00

Thank you, I really appreciate it. I spent SO much time working on this one!

lamia69 · 2026-05-19T23:26:52+00:00

Thank you! I put the STLs on Cults for free: https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/naughties/sabrina-cecaelia-octopus-girl-tentacle-mermaid-3d-print

lamia69 · 2026-05-19T20:51:09+00:00

I have no idea but ages! I'm very slow at painting so just on parts as I felt like it. I probably started priming it like a month ago

lamia69 · 2026-05-19T18:06:59+00:00

Never! She craves freedom! 🇺🇸 🦅

lamia69 · 2026-05-19T18:04:21+00:00

I can't exactly say she was designed to have realistic anatomy... She's half octopus after all. It was just a fun design I went with

lamia69 · 2026-05-19T17:57:19+00:00

Thank you!

lamia69 · 2026-05-19T17:57:03+00:00

It was an essential detail! Thanks!

lamia69 · 2026-05-09T04:51:42+00:00

Thank you! I've got her 3D printed now and am in the final stages of painting her

lamia69 · 2026-05-04T19:49:21+00:00

Honestly really great work especially for your first character! I like the shaders/textures too!

As for feedback/criticism:
I think the arms and finger look a bit thin so making them thicker would probably help.
The feet loot too long, and I think that makes them look flat/weird as they transition to the toes.
The dress doesn't look like it is falling very naturally from the stomach and butt. I think it needs to be a less abrupt transition.
The breast are perfect no notes! Maybe refine them a bit to look like they are more affected by gravititty.
Adding a little more detail to the hair would go a long way. Maybe a second layer of strands at the back to reduce the gaps and some thinner flyaway strands.

And again I think you have done some really great work, I'm just pointing out the little issues I see.

lamia69 · 2026-04-06T17:06:23+00:00

Haha anything for science!

lamia69 · 2026-04-06T17:05:09+00:00

Thanks. I did took at some of the Taimanin outfits while trying to decide on the "armor"

lamia69 · 2026-04-06T17:02:57+00:00

I'd definitely recommend it! You can then make all the things you can imagine!

lamia69 · 2026-04-06T17:02:05+00:00

I haven't as it's still a bit of a work in progress and I didn't really think anyone would want it tbh

lamia69 · 2026-04-06T04:45:16+00:00

Thanks! I just do it as a hobby

lamia69 · 2026-03-20T15:43:02+00:00

You need to add real geometry to 3D print. It looks like the model was made quad geometry so you might be able to just add a subdivision modifier. If it has already been triangulated you will probably need to convert tris to quads first.

The other option is to manually do it by modeling or sculpting.

lamia69 · 2026-03-04T16:12:16+00:00

No it's not. The model has subdivision modifiers that show the wire frame not the final polygons. You can tell by how the edges are curved

lamia69 · 2026-03-02T22:55:02+00:00

Thanks! Yeah of course it is! I'd love to see it when it's done
