A cell phone charm commissioned by a client, this Eastern-style dragon measures approximately 2" long. The resolution in FUD is incredible; every detail came out clearly, from the spine fins to the tiny claws.

Very cool!
How was the surface? Was it consistently smooth, or were there any parts that were not smooth (due to printing).
I temporarily stopped printing FUD because all of my prints had weird surface issues, so I am hoping that doesn't happen any more.

NovaKing,
The surface seemed uniformly smooth to me, although having never printed in FUD before, I don't really have any points of reference.

Nice design, whats the strength like? Something with such tiny details (looking at those arms and fingers) must be rather fragile?

AD-Edge,
I was actually quite surprised at the material strength. I wouldn't try stepping on it, but for something that will probably be hanging out of someone's pants pocket, I think it will hold up fairly well.
