PRINT PARAMETERS USED FOR TESTING

Test scale: approximately 5 cm

only Bambu Lab PLA Basic white or gray
Layer height: 0.16 extra fine
Supports: tree hybrid
Outer brim: 10 mm
Object spacing: 0 mm

------------------------------------------------

SUPPORT REMOVAL

Supports are designed to be quite delicate

They can be removed without damaging the model but gently:
one at a time, slowly, using tweezers and a bit of patience

There's no need to go Rambo on the supports…
otherwise something might break and you'll end up crying in front of the printer

------------------------------------------------

TECHNICAL NOTES (the truth, not poetry)

I prefer to print figures in single color and paint them after priming using acrylic markers or miniature painting techniques

The colored images on the cover are just examples of AI-generated coloring to show possible painting styles

The final result always depends on the personal taste of the person painting the model, I apologize for some imperfections and slight differences between the real model and the AI model, I still need to perfect the method!!! In any case, you have my photos both with and without supports as a reference printed model!!!

The design originates from an AI generation (Tripo), subsequently refined manually and tested with FDM printing to ensure real printability

The real print photos are the monochrome white or gray ones in the gallery

THE PART THAT DECIDES IF YOU PRINT OR SWEAR

Bed adhesion

I use CryoGrip Pro Frostbite and the adhesion is so strong that the prints seem to have taken out a mortgage on the bed: they never come off

I ONLY use Bambu filaments and have no issues

If you use a different setup:

• focus primarily on bed adhesion
• use dry, quality filament
• keep the bed perfectly clean
• don't be afraid to use extra brim or supports

With these precautions, printing becomes much simpler and more reliable

if you start printing them you'll end up wanting them all

If you like the model, leave a like, it really helps the project grow
