[Archived] Little Dragon Flexi and Castle
🕑 Added 2025-03-28 19:03:32 +0000 UTCHiiii!!
eeeekk Happy Friday!!! Im so excited to do this drop!!!
✨Little Dragon Flexi✨
3 walls, 15% gyroid or 3D honeycomb infill. No supports.
Tested down to 70%, wingless version tested down to 40%. I don't recommend going below 70% for both versions.
Editing 3MF
Avoid using the slicer's fill tool when coloring the eyes and eye shines in the 3MF files, because they are split to parts. Instead, assign color to them from the object list to make the edges look cleaner.
The eye shines can be deleted by holding alt and clicking on them in prepare tab, then right clicking and choosing delete from the drop down.
Inserting wings
Youtube short on inserting the wings - Youtube shorts
When inserting hold the wing closest to the ball end to help stabilize it during insertion, gently nudge ball joint back and forth while pushing it into place
you should be able to dangle the dragon from the wings without them falling out
If wings are loose increase wing scale by 1% at a time until they are secure
I was able to shape the wings a little by heating them up and bending them gently. Make sure not to heat up the ball joint, make sure to let it cool completely before inserting.
✨Castle✨
There isn't any particular scale for castle and dragon. However I personally recommend 70% castle and 80% dragon. At those scales the dragon fit snuggly into the castle.
You can change the side of the tower by right clicking on the castle and selecting mirror and then mirror x axis
The castle makes a great flush object!
⭐As with all of my designs, I strongly advise that the printed models are not to be handled by children under 3 without proper supervision⭐
Big thanks goes out to Andorra for sharing the 3MF of her version of the dragon 💖

Hii!! it would be easier to troubleshoot if you can send me pictures of your failed prints. You can send them to me on instagram, facebook, or discord if you’ve joined if 🥰

I really need help with this file. I have printed multiple times with multiple colors but for some reason the front legs just snap off. I’m using a Bambu P1S and using Bambu matte filament and a multi coloured filament from Ziro and another brand. The item prints flawlessly. I have it set at the 3 walls and 15 infill as recommended. These are printed 14 cm long. If I’m not mistaken the size of the file. Please help as I just love this item.
Christine
Hii!! it’s Ziro matte Twilight gradient 🥰
Ruth Hein
Can you share the filament used for the brown castle? I feel like that would be ther perfect color for a combo I'm working on!
Harmony Torres-Baldwin
would love keychain versions! ;)
Paradoxal_Dinosaur
This would be so cute if you made the courtyard bigger, a little shorter, and closed the door, and turned the castle into another zen garden. And then the tools could go in the tower! And maybe a smaller/shorter version of the little winged dragon to go with it?
Ann-Marie
I printed 3 of them. Really perfect. Love them all ❤️❤️❤️
Shaun McKinnon
These are really cute! Would love a tiny knight! And/or King and Queen ;)
Danielle King
These are AMAZING! Cannot wait to print. I’m always so jealous of your multi colored prints, need to invest in a dual filament printer soon!
Christine
Hii!! Follow the link at the bottom of this post. You’ll need to fully expend the download post, the link is called the little dragon and castle and it’ll be near the bottom of the download post under march released.

Just printed two dragons one wingless other winged! Have the castle on the printer now! Can’t wait to see them together! I have a vendor event coming up with lots of kids I think these will be a big hit
Christine
Hii!! it’s 70% wings in the picture, if your printing them at 100% they won’t be as transparent. I’m not using any settings 🥰
Muffina
Maybe a weird question but could you please tell me how to get the wings so transparant? I bought the same filament but it s not transparant with my printer settings. I tried tweeking but no succes! May i ask what your printer settings are to get the twinkle filament transparant as possible?
Christine
Hii!! Since the wings are printed flat on the bed they are very soild, the only risk is that they would pop out of the socket if that happens you’d just need to print them 1% bigger so they sit tighter. I’ve dropped all my test prints from 6 feet or so off the ground and they were all fine 🥰

Ich habe heute die Burg gedruckt, allerdings auf 130 Prozent. Das ist dann eine wirklich schöne Größe. Auch die Drachen sind super süß. Ich würde mir nur wünschen die Flügel wären etwas dicker und dadurch stabiler. Ich befürchte wenn ein Drach hinfällt sind die Flügel tatsächlich riskante Bruchstellen. Weiter so, alles super schöne Produkte
Christine
It’s included in the little dragon flexi 3MF 🥰
