Mechanical Beholder

thingiverse

This was inspired by Acquisitions, Inc. and used in my home game. The monk is shown for scale (25.4 mm base, 37.6 mm tall). As shown, it includes a laser-cut clear red acrylic circle for the main eye/window and laser-cur stand. I printed the beholder and eyestalks on an Ender3, painted it with a base coat of dark bronze Rustoleum Metallic spray, followed by Reaper Dragon Bronze (09449) for the straps and accents, a darkened Old Bronze (09197) wash, and lightened Pale Green (09012) dry-brush. The key for the eyestalks came from my daughter, who supplied colored glitter that I shook onto clear varnish. I designed a cutout below the main eye to hold a captains chair (thing:1489007 by CADCom7).
