📝 STL File Description — Steampunk Elephant Wall Hook

A highly detailed 3D model of a steampunk-style elephant wall hook, featuring a realistic elephant head combined with mechanical elements such as a gear-based monocle, riveted metal plates, and reinforced structural bands. The trunk extends downward into a functional hook shape, making the model ideal as a decorative wall hanger or display piece once printed.

The sculpt includes deep wrinkles, skin texture, mechanical engravings, and layered materials designed to take metallic paints exceptionally well (bronze, copper, brass, iron, patina effects).

Printing Recommendations
Best results

Resin (SLA/DLP) for maximum detail:

Layer height: 0.025–0.05 mm

Use light supports on underside of ears, trunk tip, and hook base

FDM printing

Nozzle: 0.2–0.4 mm

Layer height: 0.10–0.16 mm

Consider printing upright with supports or angled slightly backward

General tips

For large prints: hollow the model for resin (2–3 mm wall thickness)

Add drainage holes on backside if hollowing

Use support blockers to protect visible sculpted areas
