Mega great! We printed it on 66% with silk filament. Unfortunately 2 tentacles lose the tip, what could be the reason?

That could be a few things… If you are using “flush to infill” I would turn that off. It saves very little filament, and can cause color bleeding. Your flushing volumes might be too low. Switching from black to a lighter color requires a lot of black to be purged from the nozzle before the next color will come out cleanly. Make sure that the colors you set in your slicer preview are as close to the actual filament color as possible for accurate flushing calculations. If your flushing volume multiplier is lower than 1.0 you might trying increase it a little bit. If your orange filament is somewhat translucent, you could be seeing the black anchoring that the slicer does to interlock the different color sections together. If that’s the case, you would need to find a more opaque orange filament.

Hi! Tell me what I'm doing wrong because I can clearly see a darker spot between octopus eyes, the black filament is visible from under the orange filament. How to fix it?

This is probably my favorite thing ever! We didn't add a brim, we put purple Elmer's glue on our print plate and had no problem with adhesion. I try to avoid brim at all costs 😄

Steve Ras

Printing right now. It’ll be done by the time I get home from work. Awesome design, so glad I stumbled on your work over on Cults, by far the best articulated critters I’ve seen!

I wasn't aware Puffin were so varied. I could imagine the same model with choice of head (Atlantic or Tufted) as they are basically the same with slight differences

John L

Ha! I was just coming here to ask for a Tufted puffin, different from the Atlantic one but would love it!

Christopher

I'm guessing for 2 reasons. The first being it uses less filament, and 2, it's fun to spin the little guy on a pencil or pen. I should know, I've been doing it for the last 5 minutes.

Please consider making an Atlantic Puffin

I printed cutie at 65% and it came out gorgeous. Perfect palm size.

what software do you use?

Anthony Ashcraft

Matt, I have to say, your models are by far the best and easiest to print out of any of the people I've subscribed to here on Patreon. Just with default settings, your models always print so beautifully.

Cesar

Amazing!!!! I would love to see a mini of this one.

Could you please make a chameleon?

Can't post a pic here, but I printed it at 70% in silk and it came out fantastic. Remarkably posable. Fantastic work Matt. I'd never heard of this Flapjack dude before.
