Bring a piece of the reef into your home with this 3D printed and hand-painted Thecacera pacifica, inspired by one of the most iconic and charismatic nudibranchs of the Indo-Pacific.
Each model is carefully 3D printed and then individually hand-painted, capturing the bright orange body, electric blue highlights, and distinctive horn-like appendages that make this species so recognizable. No two pieces are exactly alike—each one is a small, unique tribute to marine life.
Often nicknamed the “pikachu nudibranch,” Thecacera pacifica is a favorite among divers and underwater photographers for its bold colors and playful appearance. This miniature sculpture celebrates its vibrant personality and unmistakable silhouette.
Each Nudi is handmade with care and patience during my surface intervals — when I'm not underwater spotting nudibranchs or documenting marine life for Cnymacro.com!
