Frosthaven Summons: Trained Falcon

Here's my proxy for the Frosthaven summons, the Trained Falcon! A very horizontal creature like a soaring falcon always presents a challenge when trying to figure out a pose that'll allow it to fit on a base and still be large enough for details to be visible. In the end, I decided on this banking pose as a way to capture the sense of flight from the artwork while also translating some of that horizontal pose into vertical space.

This is one of the few models that I make that isn't designed to be printed in its final orientation. As you can see in my supported screenshot, you should tip this guy forward a bit in your slicer so that the tips of the feathers are all pointed slightly upwards, otherwise they'll form some small printing islands and so a lot more support will be required.

As always, the .blend file and pre-supported .3mf (including the one that I used to print this on my Prusa MK3, although the support points should work for SLA printers) for this model are available to my patrons at https://patreon.com/VirtuallyJason.
