About this 3D model

This is a remix of Crafty Sven's excellent articulated Guardian. Just like the original, it prints without supports. When I first printed the original model, I was honestly surprised that the head isn't designed to move - because most of the geometry necessary for the ball joint is already there thanks to the underlying "Ancient Core". So getting the head to rotate was basically just a matter of chopping it off and connecting it to the core. I also tweaked the overall proportions a little bit and remodeled the claws to more closely match the Guardian's in-game design. They are a bit of a torture test for your printer now, but definitely printable. In addition to the single-color version, there's also a painted multicolor version. Enjoy :)
