The Lucky Otter

The Lucky Otter

This little otter got lucky during his deep dives and found a heart shaped stone.

He makes for a cute decorative animal or a gift for someone you like.

And the best thing is: No AMS needed to print him in whatever colors you like.

A simple A1 mini is already sufficient to print this little feller.

A plastic glue is recommended, but it's possible to assemble him as a first test without glue.

I've added some gloss varnish to the eyes, nose and togue for a more lively appearance

Here is how you assemble him

Step A: Assemble the eyes by putting the Pupils into the Iris and both into the Eyeballs. Both eyes are exactly the same. So you don't need to worry about left and right.

Step B: Slide the Tongue into the mouth and push the assembled Eyes from the side into the eye sockets. This will need a little bit of force until they click into place.

Step C:  Add the Body Front and push the Nose into the socket. Place the Heart in its hands from above. The Ugly underside of the heart (where the supports have been) should face towards the otter. That's it already! 

If you want and easier life and don't mind longer print times and filament waste I'll add a simplified AMS version.

And if you fancy a quick single color print which you might want to paint I'll have you also covered with a profile
