Been painting 3D printed song sparrows the past couple days. #SciArt #NatureArt #3Dprinting #birds
My girlfriend and I had another paint night! 🐛 This time we did Puss Moth caterpillars.
This was a one-day-build. I sculpted, printed, and then we painted, all in the same afternoon/evening.
STL files available on Savimade.ca.

He did back in the Twitter days when I originally made it. But thanks for the reconnect in the bsky universe! 💙🦋
I added a few different 3D printable turtle eggs to the website! And they're free! #SciArt 🐢
I think it's important for people to learn what species they have locally so they can be excited about them and feel some responsibility for their well-being. Since we as a species have largely taken over the planet, it seems like the right thing to do: make sure other species can still live here.🐡🐍
Thanks! I gave it a dull clear coat after the first picture and I like it even more now!
I just painted this 3D printed Massasauga Rattlesnake neonate (notice the little button instead of a rattle). It's so cute and small but still kind of mean looking. #SciArt #NatureArt 🐍
I've added two fully finished models of Great Auk eggs to Savimade.ca. Great Auks were hunted to extinction in the 1800s. Their eggs were also highly sought after by Victorian egg collectors. These models are 3D prints that were covered in spackling compound, sanded, and painted. #SciArt
Thank you! 🙏
I finished a set of educational American Eel models! I had to trim the full length video for it to fit on instagram and bluesky. But this is the most of it! #SciArt #Educational #3Dprinting 🐡
I started working on a red-backed salamander model last year but never finished it. I hope to revisit it soon!
The leaves are real. I love the effect and realism that real leaves brings to the model/display.
Blue spotted salamander model and some basic blue spotted salamander facts. #SciArt
My girlfriend and I had another paint night this weekend. This time we painted some 3D-printed Redside Dace! #SciArt #NatureArt 🐟
Painted after. It was originally printed in clear plastic.
No. I printed this in clear and painted it with acrylic paint.
The one time I tried one I didn't like that it wasn't as clear at the two part epoxy I was used to. It looked like it had an almost waxy finish to it.
I've been working on some 3D printed American Eel life cycle models this week. The final step, that I'm doing right now, is applying a two-part epoxy clear coat. This eel is currently hanging from the ceiling while it cures. #3Dprinting #eels #SciArt 🐟
This is a 3D printed and painted American Toad model. 🐸
I finished the original sculpt about 6 years ago so I revisited and updated it to my liking. I printed it in resin on an Anycubic Photon mono m5s and painted it with Golden high flow acrylics using both an air brush and paint brushes.
Hot off the 3D-printers, version 2 of our Motus Audio night flight call microphone. We're revising our microphone with some exciting new innovations, ahead of the spring 2026 migration. With Jeff Dutter, Lincoln Savi of SaviMade @lincolnsavi.bsky.social, Madison Bygrove, Natalie Emerick, and me.

How I paint a 3D printed strawberry poison dart frog 🍓 ☠️ 🎯🐸

I had another painting night with my girlfriend this weekend. This time we painted 3D-printed Strawberry Poison dart frogs (Oophaga pumilio). Printfiles available: savimade.ca. No 3D printer? You can reach out via the website and I can print some copies for you to host your own paint night!
Thank you!
I finished a set of 3D printed turtles this week! These fellas are off to teach the general public about local turtle populations. 🐢 #SciArt
Check out this American glass eel. You can get some PRETTY COOL effects with clear 3D-printing resin. #SciArt
New model released! 🐍 savimade.ca/shop/animals... #SciArt #herpetology #taxidermy #3Dprinted
I painted another 3D-printed mudpuppy. #NatureArt #BioArt #SciArt #Herpetology #Taxidermy
