The Ice Dragon emerges cold and unyielding. Sharp, heavy, and carved from frost. With jagged textures and dripping icicle accents, this dragon gives off serious frost-giant energy, like something pulled straight from a frozen myth and locked away between the pages until now.
This model comes with two different head options:
One with slots for 12mm craft eyes
I use these from Amazon: https://a.co/d/b2UkkSP
One with multi-colored printed eyes that can also be hand-painted
The tail comes as a separate piece that matches the look of the head. All of the Dragon Emerging Book Nooks share the same universal box design, so you can mix and match dragons without needing a specific box for each one.
I printed this one in Galaxy Blue PLA from Flashforge for the main body, paired with Silk Baby Blue PLA from Bambu Lab for the dripping icicle accents. The contrast really pushes the frozen, frost-giant look I was aiming for.
