My thesis, my passion project, my monsters - Little Fiends. A line of collectable figurines that I designed just for the love of the game.
The assignment was intended to focus on creating a product highlighting the different means of manufacturing, and I chose SLA printing with the product being figurines. The purpose of the figurine line is to create a spark, joining the hearts of collectors and enthusiasts. In addition to my painted designs, I want the figures to be available to be purchased blank so consumers can customize them as they like.
In the initial stages, I wanted to create Fiends that bordered on cute and creepy. The balance would create an environment where both children and adults, men and women would be able to enjoy Fiends of their choice.
I used procreate to sketch out my initial design ideas, noting quirks that I wanted refined further in the modeling process. 
Models are printed in SLA resin via an Elegoo Saturn 4 Ultra 16k 3D printer. The model is then preliminarily sanded, coated in black, blue or purple and sanded until clean and smooth. Next, the model is washed and dried several times, then left out to cure further in the sun for at least 2 days before priming and painting.
