3D Printing & Painting Contest: Plant Monsters! First Prize is a Anycubic Photon Mono 2!
Hello friends. First off I'm feeling much better today. Jen's also still sick but she's getting there. While I'm not 100% up I can at least post the next contest. I'll go lay down after this :)
This month's theme will be Plants! Examples include Shambling Mounds, Myconids, Treants and Assassin Vines. Also I'm once again collaborating with Anycubic! This month's prizes are:
1st - Anycubic Photon Mono 2
3rd - Anycubic High Speed PLA filament or Anycubic ABS-Like Resin V2
4th & beyond - a sticker by Jen! Last month's are in the mail now.
Rules are as follows:
Post your submission below with an image url. Imgur preferred. Please don't use Instagram as I can't download images from there.
Do not reuse artwork you submitted in past contests. Fresh pieces only!
One submission per patron from any tier
One photo, though a group of photos in one picture is fine
One creature per submission, though swarms of one creature is also fine.
Dioramas are welcome
Only use my files though remixes are welcome
optional - If you share your makes on your socials use the hashtags: #anycubic #best3dprinterforbeginners
You have until 2359 26 Nov 2023 to post here then I'll make a poll where you will decide the winner!
With that good luck folks! I can't wait to see what you post! Time to go rest :)

Yes, there are a lot of shambling mounds here, but that might be because the mini is so darn fun to tinker with… https://imgur.com/a/Kq3TCMR

Great job on the glowing eyes. I was also trying to do the same effect but with yellow. Nice

Are we able to add some greenstuff sculpting to your files after printing? Or reposing them? I have just been working on a diaorama that I've reposed using greenstuff
As I wrote above remixes are welcome.

Awesome!
Does your fungal zombie count for the competition?
Yeah sure go for it
Cool!
I am new to your patreon, do you always do a prize as large as this, or is this a special competition?
Nope it just happens usually around the holidays
Twig blights… I remember during one of my first campaigns our party nearly got destroyed by an ambush of these guys who just kept rolling crits. They hold a special place in my heart now haha. https://imgur.com/gallery/I1JARCp
You've inspired me to paint my very first painted miniatures! Hope to be able to place on the poll!! :)
Made a few myconids for my Dragons of Stormwreck Isle campagin. I really like how the purple tentacle ones turned out; their vivid colors are really hard to capture on camera though.. https://imgur.com/a/HOt5Xl4
Have at thee, knave! https://imgur.com/a/K0nKIfJ
Hi, I was just curious where you found the file for this model, I really like it.

https://imgur.com/gallery/tKZLsdE Had a blast printing and painting this armored treant! Definitely one of your more unique designs!

The rules say one creature, but does it need to only be one file? Or for example, could I use a picture of multiple types/models of Myconids?
As long as you make it clear which creature is your actual submission in the picture sure.
