This is the Stanford dragon model available for free download in various formats. There are some scientific differences between this model and the original .PLY from Stanford. The dragon’s absolute size has been increased to 1.174′ by .525′ by 0.828′ and the pivot is repositioned to the base rather than the center of the object. There are 50,000 vertices and 100,000 triangles.
This is a great all-around tester like the dragon model. I’ve gotten great use out of it for sub-surface scattering tests due to it’s great blend of thick and thin geometry!
Click this link to download the Stanford Dragon Model. It’s a regular object file. Just unzip it and import it into your scene.

hey man, great idea! the offset pivot always bugged me when setting up a scene. Thought you’d like to know that the download link is pointing at the stanford bunny, not the dragon.
