A Ponerine ant, Diacamma geometricum, spotted at Upper Seletar Reservoir Park on 5 Feb 2023. Interesting ripple pattern on its body. This ant species does not have a queen. Instead, some fertile workers breed and produce the colony.

Oh, it's a 3D printed ant! 
@chris_hayes Hmmm ... could you get patterns like that with a 3D printer?
@sohkamyung yeah like if you look really close at a 3d printed model, you sometimes can see that ridged topographic effect.
But, I don't have one, just reminded me of closeups people share on Mastodon of 3d-printed objects.
