The Elder thing.

I'm planning on trying a few things out in regards to printing the wings. I'm sure there is a way to get better results on my flash forge where I don't obliterate all the detail on one side.

I printed some wings the other day by splitting them down the middle printing both halves flat and then gluing them together. I got some good results but that would only work with straight wings, and I think wings look better with a nice curve. 

So with these I'm going to have a go at sculpting some supports on to them so they can be printed vertically and then the supports can be more easily cut away... I'll keep you posted on how well it works

He's a beast, really nice! Glad you're working on a way to print the wings with supports, as I've got the finder too. So I'll know it'll work if yours works ;)

Would it be possible to include files with and without the supports? Pre sculpted supports don't always work well with SLA printers

Yeah definitely. I'll do a version with supports designed for FDM printing, as well as a split up version without the supports and a third version were it's all one piece, because some people prefer it that way.
