Some years back I had commissioned a friend of mine to design a “brand mascot” for my Twitch channel. Part of the package he gave me is my user icon/profile picture in places. Unfortunately, he didn’t design a 3D model version.

Then a couple years later I stumbled upon a reddit post of someones Forest Dragon they had printed and painted, which led me to the My Mini Factory listing linked here. I eventually purchased the STL files (need to support people appropriately for the amazing work they do!) And earlier this week, after a year or so of dawdling, I finally printed my own.

This one was just for fun and to see the result. I shared this with some friends and they gave me some great ideas that are leading me to plan out additional prints. One of them might become the Official Unofficial Blog Mascot.

Hopefully I’ll remember to share progress regularly, so look forward to the future creative process posts!
