Aquaman 3D Printing Figurine | Assembly

HISTORY OF THE AQUAMAN 

Aquaman is the son of a woman named Atlana and the ruler of everything that connected with water. Before his mother died, Atlana told her son that she was the Queen of Atlantis in exile, and promised that our hero would reign the seven seas. His mother also endowed him with superhuman powers. He can breathe under water, swim at great speed, telepathically communicate with marine inhabitants. Curry’s body can withstand ocean pressure, it gives him superhuman strength, impenetrable skin and heightened feelings on the surface. Although our hero has repeatedly proved courage and determination as King of Atlantis. Constant conflicts between the inhabitants of the surface and the depths make Aquaman a desirable member of both societies. But he does not belong to any of them to the end.

ABOUT THIS 3D MODEL

Aquaman 3D model for printing was created in ZBrush. The model is saved in STL files, a format supported by most 3D printers. 

FDM version features:

- Contain 12 parts;

- Made with connectors. One part of connector (1_GE_Connector_B_B x4) you need to print 4 times;

- Made with a platform that is stylized as underwater world;

- Can stand on the surface without a platform;

- Made with two variants of hands for Trident and without it;

- All parts are divided in such way that you will print them with the smallest amount of supports.

SLS/SLA version features:

- Same as FDM but smaller and made as 2 variants. With platform and without it.

All .STL files for 3D printing have been checked in Netfabb and no errors were shown.

Note: Before starting 3D printing the model, read the Printing Details for CURA 3.0.4. Software.

There are 12 parts for FFF/FDM version and 2 parts for SLS/SLA version.

All parts of connectors should be printed at 100% infill. Trident should also be printed with 100% infill to make it solid.

Scale: His tall in life is 1860, without platform. Model made as 1/8 scale in FDM version and 1/16 in SLS/SLA version.
