This print is made on a SLA printer using SLA resin.
This dragon show one of the main advantages of SLA printing, namely the possibility to print very thin surfaces (the dragon’s wings)
The print has a green color but there are all kinds of colors in which you can print your product.
The cons of this print is the high costs (material and postproccesing time) and the print speed.

Stereolithography (also known as SL or SLA) builds parts layer-by-layer using a UV laser to solidify liquid photopolymer resins. It is commonly used to produce concept models, master patterns, large prototypes and investment casting patterns.
Advantages: High Accuracy, high productstrength.
Cons: Slow, High(er) material costs, Postprocessing time.

SLA resin comes in many flavours, almost the same as DLP resins. SLA resins are aviable in a wide variety from LiquidPhotopolymers to EpoxyPhotopolymers, transparent or color (B/W). Some of the resins can be mixed for a new color or property. All resins have one same property; UV-light curable; this means that the resin hardens when exposed to UV-light.
These are some examples:
