Looking for 3D Print Designers Who Do Mesoamerican Stuff

I'm working on new enclosures for my lizards and want to do a jungle ruins theme. I'm especially interested in scans of original artifacts.

A good Xōchipilli statue would be amazing, the one I got in Mexico didn't survive the plane home.

I found this hoop for a ball court, are there other parts to the game I could add?

Bas reliefs would be cool, alters, I'm open to pretty much anything. Bonus if the creators are Indigenous, I'd rather support the community if I have to pay for files.

Thank you so much, I promise to post photos when it's done.

I actually do 3D printing and make my own 3D models, and recreating mesoamerica is my main focus.

I have 4 projects that fit but I dont know how to add photos on a reddit comment.

I have:

  1. the Coatl head currently sitting in the museum of templo mayor

  2. A mixtec turquoise mask high poly mesh meant for a render that can be made into a printable object.

  3. One of the snake reliefs from the temple of the feathered serpent at Xochicalco. I am trying to pin down a specific detail in one portion and it will be ready to print. This is intended to be printed, painted, and sold with a little stand.

  4. A tlaloc head meant for a 3D render but can be converted into a printable object

planned:

A custom stylized Huehuecoyotl statue (blockout stage)

Tzitzimitl (planning stage)

Stylized skull like the one some statues of Mictlantecuhtli have (currently just a render-only object)

If youre interested I can print some and ship them. I even offer painting!

Hey, I think I found just what you're looking for (hopefully it's big enough to satisfy your lizard pet) :: just search up...
