[Archived] Little Dragon Flexi and Castle (Patreon)

Hiiii!!

eeeekk Happy Friday!!! Im so excited to do this drop!!!

✨Little Dragon Flexi✨

• 3 walls, 15% gyroid or 3D honeycomb infill. No supports.

• Tested down to 70%, wingless version tested down to 40%. I don't recommend going below 70% for both versions.

Editing 3MF

• Avoid using the slicer's fill tool when coloring the eyes and eye shines in the 3MF files, because they are split to parts. Instead, assign color to them from the object list to make the edges look cleaner. 



• The eye shines can be deleted by holding alt and clicking on them in prepare tab, then right clicking and choosing delete from the drop down.

Inserting wings

Youtube short on inserting the wings - Youtube shorts

• When inserting hold the wing closest to the ball end to help stabilize it during insertion, gently nudge ball joint back and forth while pushing it into place

• you should be able to dangle the dragon from the wings without them falling out

• If wings are loose increase wing scale by 1% at a time until they are secure

• I was able to shape the wings a little by heating them up and bending them gently. Make sure not to heat up the ball joint, make sure to let it cool completely before inserting.

✨Castle✨

• There isn't any particular scale for castle and dragon. However I personally recommend 70% castle and 80% dragon. At those scales the dragon fit snuggly into the castle.

• You can change the side of the tower by right clicking on the castle and selecting mirror and then mirror x axis

• The castle makes a great flush object!

⭐As with all of my designs, I strongly advise that the printed models are not to be handled by children under 3 without proper supervision⭐


Big thanks goes out to Andorra for sharing the 3MF of her version of the dragon 💖
