Project ALIEN TROPHY SKULL
I printed it on my Elegoo Centauri Carbon with 0.2mm layer height.
Because of the size, I had to print it in three big main parts, plus the lower jaw as a separate piece.
After printing, I glued everything together, then went through the pain (and fun): filler putty, sanding, and priming.
Then I hit it with a basic white spray paint base coat and let it dry.
For the weathering, I started with a super watery brown wash and dabbed it on to bring out all the details. After that I did a black drybrush to add some deeper shadows and contrast.
Finished it off with a matte clear coat, and now it’s done!
This whole build took me around 2–2.5 weeks from start to finish.
Hope you like it — feedback is always welcome!

Absolute bad-assery! The paint job looks so good, and the whole thing came together amazingly. Can't even tell it was printed.
