Dark Deku Bust – My Hero Academia

A battle-worn Dark Deku display bust inspired by Izuku Midoriya from My Hero Academia.

This sculpt features Deku’s jagged hood, signature face mask, layered scarf, torn cape, and detailed costume straps and belt. A separate display base with a raised UA emblem completes the piece.

Designed as a display piece for anime collections and a painting project for My Hero Academia fans.

Printing notes

Supports will likely be needed beneath the scarf, cape, and other overhangs. Check your slicer preview carefully and adjust orientation and supports for your printer and chosen scale.

The hood tips and torn cape edges are delicate. Take care when removing supports, and avoid scaling the model down too far.

Painting

For a finish inspired by the colour reference, use deep green for the suit and hood, muted yellow for the scarf and cape, metallic grey for the mask, and red for the belt pouches. Dark washes and light dry-brushing can bring out the sculpted folds and costume details.
