Just finished painting this fierce dragon rider sculpture! 🐉⚔️
I sculpted the entire piece in Nomad Sculpt on the iPad Pro, then 3D printed it on the Elegoo Jupiter. This one’s heading to Gen Con and will be available at my booth #658.
Meet my latest creation—the very first one printed and painted!

This piece will be debuting at Gary Con XVII in March, and one has already been spoken for. I plan on printing and painting a couple more with different color schemes, so stay tuned for more!
Since 2020, I’ve been digitally re-sculpting and refining nearly all of my original hand-sculpted pieces—using ZBrush and Nomad Sculpt, not AI (know the difference!). My latest project was revisiting Thorn, my stylized dragon wall hanging. This time, I gave it some curvier wings for a fresh look.
Update: my demon and dragon sculpt is printed and I am preparing to paint it. Here it is on my work bench. What do think?
Work in progress! This sculpture will debut at GaryCon this March. Once finished, I’ll move on to 3D printing and hand-painting. I’ve made several changes: re-sculpted the rock, removed the dragon scales, refined the dragon’s muscles, added a bridle, and added more detail to the saddle.
The ents are gathering.
🌟 New Sculpt Alert! 🌟
Here’s my latest creation, crafted entirely on the iPad Pro using the Nomad Sculpt app!
WIP..., Really enjoying this sculpt! Next steps: 3D printing it and then hand-painting all the details to really make it pop.
What do you think so far? 🖌️✨
I have finished my Wolf Rider. I used Nomad Sculpt to digitally sculpt it on the iPad, the Elegoo Jupiter for 3D printing, and hand-painted it. My niece has already claimed the first one. I will make another post when it becomes available on my website. I still struggle with faces.
Finished my Dragon Cage. I created this with Nomad Sculpt, printed on the Elegoo Jupiter and hand painted. I will have it listed in my web store soon. The little dragons are Smidge and Sleepy. #nomadsculpt #elegoojupiter #dragons
WIP… I have previously sculpted this wolf with wings and he is available on my website. Someone suggested that I remove the wings and create a rider for this wolf so that is what I’ve been done. I sculpted this in nomad sculpt. I will post when finished.
This is a work in progress. I’ve created a small dragon cage in Nomad Sculpt and am currently printing test prints to determine its size. I hope you like it. Once finished, there will be a little dragon inside the cage.
Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone!

Meet my little dragon friend, "Spooky", almost in time for spooky season! 🐉🎃 I sculpted in Nomad Sculpt, 3D printed on my Elegoo Jupiter, and hand-painted with love. This feisty little dragon found himself a cozy spot with a jack-o’-lantern—perfect for autumn vibes! 😊

My latest sculpt 1 month out of sync but hey I got it done. LOL
Several Months ago I sculpted one of Fian Arroyo’s little dragon characters. “Lairless”, the dragon is available and hand painted by Fian. Here is the sculpting video: youtu.be/8jd1K60N1zI?...
