This Gargoyle Bookend was inspired by Bartholomew from Knight and the Moth. He’s the kind of character that just loves learning, doesn’t panic, and always thinks things through instead of acting on impulse. But, at the end of the day, it is just a cool reading gargoyle bookend!
This model prints in multiple pieces and assembles easily with glue. Once finished, it has a really strong presence on the shelf, especially with a simple metallic finish.
I printed mine in Bambu Lab Onyx Sparkle Black and finished it with Silver Rub ’n Buff to bring out all the details.
