If you are into the zodiac at all, you may be surprised to learn both my wife and kiddos are Scorpios! So this design was a must-do and an absolute blast to work on.
I really enjoy the fully print-in-place models, especially with the amount of articulation this character has. It is easily printable in a variety of sizes and looks amazing in gradient silk pla.
The 3mf provided has a Scorpion from Mortal Combat vibe for you gamers that may be familiar 😎🎮 Thanks to @dragon1776 for the Silver Rub and Buff on black pla idea 🔥 My wife did a killer post apocalyptic battle bot paint job on this 205% Cyber Scorpion in about 20 minutes!
And I also wanted to mention members get 40% off my older scorpion too. The original can print smaller and has a 3mf and xl version too :) Flexi Factory Scorpion HERE
And I have added an XL version with a glue on tail for those that want to supersize this creepy crawler!!! (scale as large as your plate)
Print tips and Info:
I successfully test printed between 60% and 150% for this one. You can go big, no problem. The smaller versions have the littlest legs, so use high quality materials and settings. I personally feel 70% is as small as you should go.
STL and 3MF files are included. * If you use the 3mf file, please remember that it is a painted project file for your convenience. You must check your material/printer/settings to make sure it works correctly for your printing project.
I print with, 15% infill/gyroid, .12 or .16 layer height for quality.
As usual, make sure you have good adhesion, especially for the smaller versions. A glue stick works or I have switched to using on all my machines... a BIQU Cryopgrip Frostbite adhesion plate.
Gradient PLA works well with this model: I have a comprehensive list of Filament I use here: Amazon List
1st and 2nd Photo is 150% STL and 100% 3mf: Amolen Tri color Blue/Green/Orange and Amazon Basic Silk Gold, Anycubic Black, Justmaker Silk Blue
3rd photo is 80% STL: TTYT3D Silk Yellow/Green

Rubnbuff is great for metallic look. Quick and easy too
Dan
Print in black, then she applies with a dry fine cloth. Just a little goes a long way. She also highlights with a shimmer model paint.

Once again, you continue to knock them out of the park. I haven't signed up with those other guys that they keep comparing you to because there's just something unique about your artwork. And I really appreciate. Thank you for keeping to that.
