Apollo the Lion
Apollo the Lion will certainly be a fierce addition to your home, and your shelf will know it the moment he arrives. This hand-finished 3D printed sculpture is printed and finished right here at my workshop in the Netherlands, ready to take his place and keep watch.
✦ About Apollo
Apollo loves it when his pride feels safe, letting them play and relax under his watchful eye. Give him some company by placing him with other figurines or on your desk, that way, whenever you feel discouraged, he will always be there to support you. He stands proud and vigilant, protecting everything in his vicinity from any negative influences.
✦ Fun Fact
Lions are the only truly social big cats, living in groups called prides that can number up to 30 individuals. While lionesses do most of the hunting, male lions like Apollo play an equally important role, their impressive mane makes them look larger and more intimidating to rivals, helping to protect the pride without a single claw being raised.
Apollo's measurements are approximately 15 × 5 × 10 cm (L × W × H). Because Apollo was designed as a figurine and not as a toy, please be careful with him when children are around, everything has been sanded down where needed for safety, but some sharp parts could still be present.

Living with a print
It's a print, so it reads like one up close. Seams get sanded, supports get cleaned off, nothing gets filled in to fake a moulded look.
PLA starts to soften around 50 °C. A sunny windowsill is fine: a parked car in August is not.
Dry brush or a soft cloth. If it needs more than that, lukewarm water and patience: no solvents.
