If you like my models and that I make random minis for people then come follow and support me on Patreon https://goto.adamnant.com/l/patreon?site=printables&model=meowdron&cta=header - where you can ask me to make minis for you, get updates on my projects like gmbuddy.com and get access to exclusive minis for my Patrons.
Alfie made another monster to be turned into a 3d printable DND creature. This time it was a little cat robot thing - while I was working on it the name "Meowdron" seemed to fit nicely. Unlike my other "kids art to 3d" minis I made this one by hand with simple shapes and then remeshed and sculpted. I tried to keep it faithful to the drawing but I added some bevels to the arms and chest and I removed the single swirl of hair on its head because he said he didn't want that part.
As usual I livestreamed my work so the video of that will be available here when it's done processing: https://goto.adamnant.com/l/vod-meowdron?site=printables&model=meowdron&cta=process
For the process as I mentioned it was made with simple shapes. Cylinders for the body and buttons and nose, curves for the arms, uv spheres for the hands and head. There is a little star mesh in blender that I filled in and tweaked a bit for the chest button. The sculpting is pretty plain but I maybe went a bit overboard trying to add more detail so it looks a bit out of place. Lower poly might have been better here idk. Overall this was a fun exercise and I think Alfie is going to be happy with this one.
For printing. I doubt anyone will want to print this other than us but I've added presupported resin files and a 3mf file of the base model. You can use these or follow the usual I give:
FDM print on its back with tree supports at 30 degrees
Resin print at a -45 degree angle on the x-axis with automatic supports (since this mini is larger you might want to use medium supports)
I've completed my quest for 1000 models in 2025 so now I'm trying to decide whats next. You can follow along with me on Thingiverse, Printables, Cults3d or provide suggestions on Patreon here: https://goto.adamnant.com/l/patreon?site=printables&model=meowdron&cta=footer (as well as get codes for exclusive downloads on Cults3d). If you have something that you need or a custom model like this that you want then let me know and let's make it!
