About this 3D model
The Alien Egg can be printed at ten different ages using the Customizer. At age 0, there is just the shell. Then the embryo appears at age 1 and grows gradually until it gets big enough at age 9 to outgrow the shell. Along the way, side ports open up so you can see it grow. At each age it can be printed in different variations: without the antennae, without the ribs and even without the shell. The photos show eggs at Ages 0, 5, 6 and 8. There's also an animation showing all the stages of growth at: https://vimeo.com/101582356
