Mythical Hydra Figurine

thingiverse

I first started making this model years ago, before I even heard of 3D printing, to serve as a mascot to my high school band, HydraPlayn (yes, my dad and I came up with that name driving on a rainy day, no we weren't a particularly serious band, and yes...we were extremely awesome). Unfortunately, I was never able to finish it in time to put it onto any graphics before I had to leave for college. Since then, it has just been a little pet project to practice my 3D modeling skills. When my father and I got a 3D printer, however, I knew that I had to print this out. After a few modifications to make it printer-friendly, the hydra lives! Use this Hydra figurine, depicting the mythical multi-headed beast bickering among itself, to make any space more lively. Set it up in the kitchen as a decoration, in the bedroom to guard you while you sleep, or hide it in a rival's locker to scare the Hades out of them. Instructions Print the sculpture using full support (raft recommended), clean, and enjoy! [Note: Do NOT cut off any of the hydra's heads. Two more will grow in its place. And it will be angry.]
