Hello my friends! Sorry for taking so long before posting another design! I had a lot of issues with this one and it took me much more time than i tought to complete the design!
Let's start by saying this: its a "big print" compare to others! Be aware, almost half a kg will go in this project.
Everything prints fine without supports. You will need some good overhang settings and some bridges are present but nothing really intense. Everything is pretty easy to print.
NOTE 1: Because of the layers orientation, some screw holes may crack. (the one on the vertical surfaces where the tower and the body merge together). So i strongly suggest to glue those parts too. Use the screws as "alignement guides) and add some glue along the edges where the tower meets the body. This will give you a strong, rigid assembly. Do not glue any other parts installed with screws, especially the cleaning door and the support!!!
NOTE 2: The windows and the door are made with a color change. I have included three pictures as examples (two for the windows, one for the door) for the color changes.
NOTE 3: On parts where you have receiveing screw holes (balcony, tower, castle body), use at least 3 walls (shells).
Finally, between the roofs and the castle body, you will find a thin plate covering the whole castle body. This is to prevent any water from leaking inside. As an addition, both roofs have sloped to prevent water from staying on the roof, with gutters on each side to evacuate rain water.
Also, small holes at the bottom are now present, to prevent drowning of the baby birds if any water would get inside.
If you have any other questions, just ask! I will try to help you as much as i can! Have fun!
