Love-ly Spirit Visiting Venice Carnival Hello! This has been the time of the very famous Carnival here in Venice (I live in Veneto, Italy), and we have just concluded a lovely Valentine's Day celebrated also on this platform. Why not combine Carnival and Valentine's Day with the celebrations of the Year of the Dragon? Here it is, a basic rainbow dragon, covered with transparent spray primer to preserve the base obtained thanks to the properties of filament 3D printing (in this case a color-changing PLA+ filament by iSANMATE). I painted this model using tiny brush and acrylic colors. It requires a lot of patience: you have to wait a long time for the print because to achieve a pleasant and rich color gradient, it is necessary to fill the model with a very dense infill, and because of these long waiting times, it is better to use glue and brim. Then you have to spray the primer, being very careful not to let it accumulate, otherwise dense drops would cover details and colors of the PLA. Don't ruin such beautiful PLA! Be patient. Then you have to apply the acrylic, considering that denser and drier acrylic will adhere to the surface while more watery and wet acrylic will settle into the crevices highlighting the details. Use complementary or contrasting colors for the crevices and external surfaces. If possible, temporarily stick the model to a surface to paint it more precisely. Happy printing!
