Unknown Creatures - Cerberus Skeleton 3D print model

cgtrader

The ancient myth of Cerberus unfolds like a terrifying tale. Cerberus, known to many as the ferocious "hound of Hades," was born from the union of the monstrous Echidna and Typhon. This creature is most commonly depicted with three menacing heads, its tail twisting into a serpent's form, and serpents sprouting forth from its body like writhing tentacles. As a key figure in Greek mythology, Cerberus' reputation was cemented by its capture at the hands of Heracles, who faced this beast as one of his twelve labors. However, Cerberus' physical appearance has varied across accounts, with some claiming it to be three-headed while others portray it differently. A closer look reveals that Cerberus is not alone in its family tree of monstrous offspring. It shares lineage with Typhon, a father known for his own multi-snake heads, and several other brothers and sisters, each boasting multiple heads: Orthrus, the two-headed guardian of Geryon's cattle; Lernaean Hydra, a serpent-like beast with countless heads; and Chimera, a fearsome creature comprising a lion, goat, and snake in one. In preparation for 3D printing, I ensure that arms, feet, legs, and all parts are accurately mirrored. However, users must still adjust these mirrored pieces to their preferred settings within their slicing software. When ready, each print becomes fully functional.
