Delicate, curious, and irresistibly cute, this 3D printed and hand-painted Costasiella is inspired by one of the most beloved sea slugs in the underwater world.
Often nicknamed the “leaf sheep,” Costasiella species are famous for their bright green bodies, soft leaf-shaped cerata, and expressive little face. This miniature sculpture captures their gentle form and playful appearance, carefully brought to life through detailed hand painting.
Each piece is 3D printed with precision and finished entirely by hand, making every Costasiella unique—just like the real ones hiding among algae on tropical reefs.
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 !
