Sea creature pins

These are made using real specimen 3D scan data from the Smithsonian. A collection of gorgeous sea critters turned into brooches/pins.

It's recommended to print these pins at .08mm Extra Fine to take advantage of the gorgeous details!
Printed with this setting in matte PLA, they fit with these pin blanks: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B7JNVGWK?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_1&th=1
