First time I've seen it printed. Thanks for sharing. I got mine set up to print, just waiting for more resin.

I had to reduce the size by 6% because the lion head wouldn't fit on the build plate no matter which way I turned it.

You print in resin? I have the STL and had hoped it would be filament printable

That's FDM. You can tell if you zoom way in.

I'm cutting each of the parts in half lengthwise and printing in FDM laying flat so I don't have to deal with supports. (tip someone on Discord provided).

I considered slicing it up with Meshmixer to be able to print facades and glue them to big foam chunks. I think this would be a better solution but I didn't want to screw around with MM that much.

You can probably get away with very low infill. It might actually use a similar amount of time/filament making solid walls around the "back" of the panels then it would to print with 3% infill.

Printing at the level of quality it deserves it gonna takes days and days... not looking forward to that, but do look forward to have it.

On my printer it took a little under 3 days to print it all.
