You can 3D print your own Elden Ring Pot Boys

elden ring is full of cruel enemies who desperately want you dead. There are terrifying looking spider hands, massive earth tree guardians, and nimble gargoyles. But the beloved Trickster Pot Boys have risen above the rest. Some fans have even created and painted 3D models of them – and now you can too.

Freelance digital sculptor Andrew Martin has created a popular 3D model of the iconic Pot Boy available on ArtStation. Pot Boi – Dice Vault stands upright and has a removable lid – so you can store little treasures inside.

Like many of us, Martin was immediately drawn to the Pot Boys when they debuted in one elden ring Follower. “I’m a huge fan of FromSoftware games and like many others, I fell in love with Pot Boy the first time I saw it elden ring Trailer,” Martin told Polygon via email.

He immediately started designing the 3D models, which took a total of eight to ten hours. “The biggest challenge was that there were only two (rather blurry) reference images of the Pot Boy available when I modeled the model,” said Martin. “For my original cover design, I only had the tiniest part of an image and had to guess as best I could what was on it. I was pleasantly surprised at how close my design was to the actual game model!” Since the game’s release, Martin has redesigned the cover to “more closely match the game model”.

Martin traditionally started sculpting in 2005 before switching to digital work a few years ago. His prolific portfolio includes everything from Squid Game fan art too Dark Souls The Board Game miniatures.

Since the release of the Pot Boy model, fans have turned to 3D printing and painting the miniatures. Cosplayer Nissa printed out the models on her Elegoo Saturn and brought them to life with meticulous painting.

She used a “black spray primer” for the base and “this was followed by an airbrush with a dark charcoal color on top,” Nissa told Polygon via Twitter DM. For the lighter tones, she “used a piece of felt, applied paint sparingly and gently to the minis.” dabbed so the darker base colors were still visible where dirt and shadows would actually sit.” She finished it off with a smaller brush to add “dirt and detail” before airbrushing[ing] some matte finish.”

Nissa first encountered this Pot Boy 3D model while working for the Red Bull Levels: Elden Ring event in January. First, the organizers asked them to do so Make a meter high Pot Boy for her set, which she created using a mix of building materials. The organizers then asked them if they could make the decorations for their talent dinner, which led them to find Martin’s 3D model. Since then she has created more for herself and friends.

Others responded to Nissa’s tweet and shared their own versions of the 3D pot boy, like this one climbing out of the ground.

“It gives me great pleasure to see the liveries and superstructures on my models,” said Martin. “I’m not a big miniaturist, so I’m blown away by what some of the other artists can achieve. Especially when they go above and beyond by adding backdrops and base details that really make the model sing!”
