3D print and paint a realistic Lara Croft climbing an ice wall.
Thanks to Elegoo who provided the Mars 3 and the Neptune 3 PLUS â both are awesome printers and I could not have done this without them.

I do love Tomb Raider and I have had this model on my to do list for over a year. I was mulling over how to do the ice wall as there are so many different ways but getting the translucent look was an issue. I did the ice cavern a few months ago and transparent filament was the answer but my ice wall was too big for my current printers. Before I sliced it up into little pieces to fit on my existing printers, Elegoo stepped in and offered me their new Neptune 3 PLUS. It is a sweet printer and has worked really well. I was surprised the icicles printed so well but they came out perfectly being more transparent at the bottom as you would expect.

That's gorgeous.
Hi Kathy, another stunning diorama, Lara looks so life-like, it's like looking at a photograph of a real person, and the ice-wall is superb, anyway, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, stay safe, all the best from Scotland, Stephen.
Her position is against the principle of physics. Other than that, nice picture.
Well done … why not add LED light inside the ice ..
Your ice climb diorama looks great it looks ð ð realy t o me keep up great ð ð ð work you have a wonderful and great day be safe
Thank you so much for sharing this with our community. This is beautiful. Subbed, liked, and commented!
Awesome Job
That FDM worked pretty slick . I just picked up the Elegoo Neptune 3 Pro for my daughter for Christmas so we are floundering trying to figure out and finding settings . Our third try wasn't to great lol Filament kinda wasn't going down right and had gaps. But after re-leveling and raising the print head up a tad its working , but still not sure if it's right . Our first ( Well second Printer since the month before I bought another brand and it was a nightmare and Elegoo worked right out of the box for us ) printer was the Mars 3 Pro we got 3 months back and I am really liking Elegoo thus far for what it does . Other thing that I like is Lychee Slicer works for both printers so I dont have to dance around with slicers . Wonder if a model like yours if you put a blue LED inside if It would make it glow some at night fir a nightlight ð
Happy Holidays, Kathy! ð ðâïļ
Wow. Just wow. Great work!
Superb ice & snow effect. I think the two shades of the print added some effect as it looked like sediment and dirt had collected in the lower section.ð
Thank you.
That is beautiful, thanks for sharing your work. As a now retired mountaineer, I can tell you that ice climbing is brilliant fun and cliffs like that one are really hard. However, this piece made me want to climb again, despite my aching bones! ðĪŠ
The fact that the back of the diorama is also translucent clear white is cool, a different visual for a back of a diorama for once, and it fits the theme.
This looks amazing and it turned out great! My only wish is that Lara had a more suitable expression on her face, but nothing you could do about that.
this is ace love the icicles ð
OMG – Kathy your amazing with all your models ! You must work for some movie company in the UK ? Love from ðĻðĶ
That looks great Kathy.
Snow and ice are not the easiest things to get right but that has just the right amount of shimmer to it. Well done!
This is absolutely incredible! It really looks like you somehow just shrink ray'd a piece of real life.
Ice to see this!
Fascinating process and really cool result. The ice looks cold!
Looks great. My thoughts were what a great book end it would make
Awesome
She looks awesome! All the tech stuff and 3D printing make my head spin and while I can't do it myself, I do like other people being great at it. Can you do a video on ways to really fixate scenery? I have to move things around quite a bit so brushes etc break and ground cover and flock wear off quite quickly. I've done various experiments with making trees removable which works great except, I can't figure out how to store them. I'd love to hear your tips on making dioramas super sturdy.
What a nice diorama idea and amazing build video
I love how they talk about empowerment and realism and then still use bulky scarf that really don't fit properly under the coat collar and expose most vulnerable part of throat to frostbite to make her more feminine ð but diorama still is simply stunning
Yo.
Awesome work (i'm jealous of your skills, damn it)
Say, can you do Spawn diorama ?
