***UPDATE*** I added the 3mf files for Prusa (2 and 4 colors) and Bambu (4 colors) Slicers.
Let the games begin!
I had to make some last minute changes to the helmet to make sure it was strong when you reduce the size. I even went back and forth with no holes, but I am VERY happy with this design.
He stands, he holds the sword with both hands or a single hand, his helmet flips up and down.
I am still prepping the 3mf files, and will get them out asap. Just wanted to make sure everyone gets this before the weekend :)
***probably worth mentioning all those little heads and hands and swords were test prints. Also, for dramatic effect hahahaha***
Happy printing and I cannot wait to see your prints. -Dan

Or maybe a princess knight! My girls have liked βthe princess in blackβ books - and she isnβt a damsel who needs rescuing!
Best flexi yet

Well negotiations are successful with the wife, just waiting on taxes to get the bambu, yeahπ, she pointed out that the knight needs a damsel to rescue. Since you offered your support in getting the bambu, I would consider that the best support.π Thanks Dan for all you do.

It came out pretty great! I need to test printing the sword slightly smaller than the knight. I printed him and the sword at 60% and it doesn't slide all the way into his hand so I'll just scale it down a touch more and try again. :) I also am tempted to try fitting him with some other tiny weapon models I have (I think I mostly have other types of swords but he has a hand to hold things and I have to play with this idea now.)

I do a lot of my painting with just normal acrylic paints that I have. They work pretty well. I finish off the details and grudging of things with miniature paints and a complimenting wash.

Here is a link with the paints I use: https://www.amazon.com/shop/flexifactory/list/QVD558MG0I7T?ref_=cm_sw_r_apann_aipsflist_aipsfflexifactory_ZRT3B32MKD5S051XWYYT
what type of paint do you folks have the best success with on PLA?
Tiffany Gobkes
Printing this in copper, gold, silver tricolor right now. :) Excited to see how it looks. I'll have to paint the face manually but I spent all day painting a model for my husband so some small details won't kill me. :b Some day I shall get a Bambu 3d Printer.

I've never used the slicer. Maybe the file is corrupt?

Receiving an infill error from SuperSlicer. If I set infill to 0, it slices; anything above 0 returns an error. Only seems to happen with this particular model. Could be user error, but thought I'd share.
