MAGNETO bust [Pre-Supported]
🕑 Added 2022-09-26 23:43:27 +0000 UTC👉 Click here to download 👈 (⚠️NOTE⚠️ this link will expire in 7 days, so after that (or if the download fails for another reason), go to this Patreon post for the current working download links, and give each and one a try.)
Note 2: I recommend downloading the .7z files instead of the .zip files this time, because this is otherwise a pretty sizeable release to download.
I know we're supposed to keep things light and positive in these Patreon posts to give you patrons a good feeling, but HOLY HELL, this one was a pain the ass to make! I won't go into too many details, but, I'm not sure I'll make head switchables again soon because I kept making foolish, easy little mistakes while doing supports in Lychee that ended up costing me literal working days.
Anyways, I finally finished a Magneto bust.
Head switchables
There are a lot of collectable statues that come with interchangeable heads these days, with various limited-edition ones being shipped, and I wanted to give people the option to pick and choose how they display this one. I've left some space between the key and socket, so you can use something like Blu-Tack to keep the two pieces in place so that the head won't get knocked over at the slightest bump.
I also made a switchable holder (two pictures below) that you can print for each head if you want to display them.
Printing instructions
This guy comes in many different pieces, but if you only choose one head you want to use, you only have to print three parts: a head, the torso, and the base piece.
Resin
As always, this one comes pre-supported for small (e.g. Elegoo Mars) and medium (e.g. Elegoo Saturn/Anycubic Mono X) sized resin printers. Lychee Slicer lite (*.lyt) scene files are Lychee Slicer lite (*.lyt) scene files provided with editable and tagged supports, which I recommend you use and edit to your preference if you think I'm a bit heavy on supports in some places; as well as pre-supported and hollowed STL files.
I didn't want to make the tolerances too loose, so depending on various resin UV exposure settings, you might need to do some light sanding on the keys of the heads and socket to make them fit properly.
FDM
The only piece that strictly requires any supports on FDM printers is the helmet, as shown below. You want to put them along the rim, as shown. The other heads should be fine without, but you might want to put some along the back of the hair, if only for extra stability while printing. As usual, if you know your printer doesn't do overhangs well, I'd still put some down wherever you think you might need some.
I have to move on to finishing up the next thing before the month runs out, so I'll leave you with a big thank you for keeping supporting me in doing these silly little works of art. I hope you all are in good health, and I'll see you in the next one! :)
