Mosskin Forest Sprite 3D Print Model

Hey there, fellow creators! Meet the Mosskin Forest Sprite, an enchanting little guardian born from the magic of AI-assisted 3D generation and the careful eye of a talented artist. This single-piece model requires no assembly—just slice, print, and bring this leafy fellow to life!

Design Concept
Our sprite blends pointy elf ears, a mossy beard, and bark-like clothing into one organic silhouette. Every fold of “leaf” was refined by hand after an initial AI pass, ensuring both whimsy and structural stability.

Recommended 3D Print Settings

• Material: PLA or PETG (PLA for simplest, PETG for a little flex and strength)

• Layer Height: 0.12 – 0.20 mm (0.15 mm gives a great balance of detail and speed)

• Infill: 15 %–20 % (grid or gyroid)

• Supports:

  • Overhangs above 50° (under arms and leafy overhang)

  • Use tree-style supports to minimize cleanup on delicate leaf tips

• Print Orientation:

  • Upright, on the sprite’s feet

  • Angle the model slightly backward (~5°) to reduce front-facing overhangs

• Shells/Perimeters: 2 – 3 perimeters for a sturdy exterior

• Print Speed: 40 – 60 mm/s for sharp detail on the beard and foliage

• Bed Adhesion: Raft or brim recommended if your printer struggles with small footprint

• Post-Processing Tips:

  1. Gently sand any support nubs with 200–400 grit sandpaper.

  2. Prime with a matte gray primer to highlight the leafy textures.

  3. Hand-paint with acrylics or use an airbrush for subtle green gradients and bark accents.

AI & Artist Collaboration Disclosure

This model was co-created using advanced AI 3D generation tools and then lovingly sculpted and optimized by a human artist. That perfect mix means you get both lightning-fast concept exploration and the nuanced quality of a designer’s touch!
