Oyma 3D aims to introduce unique artworks by utilizing the endless possibilities of 3D Printing. Rocinante is our first project which we made especially to celebrate the 400th anniversary the timeless masterpiece Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra. Don Quixote has been published and translated more than any other book (except for the Bible). Don Quixote's horse "Rocinante" was not just an ordinary horse, but he was to him the resemblance of the super horse that a heroic knight like Don Quixote can rely upon in his legendary battles like when he fought the giants (the famous fight with the windmills). A horse like no other, this is how I wanted this sculpture to be, an intricate and unique piece that suits a magnificent knight like Don Quixote. It took Don Quixote four days to find an appropriate name for his horse, because (as he said to himself) "It was not right that a horse belonging to a knight so famous, and one with such merits of his own, should be without some distinctive name..." So he decided to call his horse Rocinante, which means in Spanish "The foremost nag in all the world". Rocinante 3D-printed edition is made of flexible white nylon plastic with a matte finish and slight grainy feel. The bronze edition is made of premium quality bronze alloy. "Thou hast seen nothing yet" is a quote from Don Quixote engraved on Rocinante's horseshoe shaped base.
