The winner of our incredible Blood Glacier competition to create a monster and have it brought to life through 3D printing is Kyle Fraser, with his Pegasus-inspired animal/human hybrid.
This nightmare was given form courtesy of Modla, who introduce themselves and describe the process:
“Modla is a design consultancy specialising in 3D printing and digital 3D fabrication. We work with businesses and individuals across a range of industries to guide through the design and manufacturing process involved in this revolutionary technology.
“This model was produced by first designing a digital version within specialist 3D software. Once this was complete, the file was sent to a 3D printer, where it was produced in a process known as Selective Laser Sintering (SLS).
“This process involves firing lasers into a tub of powder, bonding the particles layer by layer, until the final model is created. From here, it was then spray finished in a grey coat, before being hand painted to bring out all the detail.”
Blood Glacier is out now on DVD, pick it up for £10 from Amazon.co.uk.
