Hey all!I’m working on finishing up this month’s public release, and should be dropping that on Friday.  In the meantime, I wanted to let you all know about some 3MF updates for my Rattlesnake, Ball Python, and Little Ball Python files…I've been wanting to get this update done for a while. When I originally released these snake designs, multicolor printing was not as popular as it is today. I had hand painted my primary example prints. There were "basic" 3MFs included with them, to color the eyes and mouth, but I had been wanting to add more "deluxe" 3MFs that included body patterning similar to those painted samples. That day is here! Here are the Updates:-Rattlesnake: Now includes both "Basic" and "Deluxe" 3MF files.-Ball Python: Now includes both "Basic" and "Deluxe" 3MF files.-Little Ball Pythons: Now includes a Multicolor 3MF file. (I want to do one for the Little Rattlesnakes exclusive too, but ran short on time. I didn't want to wait on releasing these updates)Have fun with making interesting color combinations!  If you want to experiment with altering the 3MFs to add more color variation, I encourage you to check out This Video for some tips and tricks!

Oh this makes me so happy! Snapmaker is gonna be busy now!

Daniel Murrieta

I love how one looks angry and the others look cute. Did you use a gradient for the skin? It came out great. (Edit: just noticed the filaments at the end. Thanks!)

Maks

How many hours to print one ?

3D Sunbeam

Wow! These are some Fantastic paint Jobs!

Megan Heideman

Will the etsy downloads be updated also?

matmire_makes

Yes, if you still have the download PDF, the download link in it will grab the latest version. If you don’t have the pdf, you should be able to redownload that from your Etsy account’s “purchases” page. Private message me if you have trouble getting the update.

have you used Ziro on Snapmaker yet? We cannot get a good print out of it and can only use our Bambus for it :(

Daniel Murrieta

I did! They have gorgeous filament, but I’ve only used one of them once. Toward the end, it kept under extruding. I had to keep forcing it 5 degrees higher which helped a lot.

matmire_makes

That's odd. I've printed lots of Ziro filaments on my U1 without any issues. I just use the Generic PLA preset and do the auto flow calibration at the start of each print, and they've been flawless for me.

Steve Powell

Amazing! And what a crazy hodgepodge of release points :spinning_eyeballs: I found the originals! Back from 2022!!

I currently have a paid membership through MyMiniFactory. Before I signed up for the monthly subscription, I was looking for a snake model and purchased the STL files for the snakes. I digitally painted those files, loved your work, and then bought more of your STL files. I was still new to 3D printing at the time, so it took me a while to realize I could sign up for the monthly membership. Once I did, I joined through MyMiniFactory. Since then, I believe I have purchased every file you have available for sale. I have recently learned more about Patreon, where I already follow a couple of other designers. Are there any benefits to having a paid Patreon membership rather than a MyMiniFactory membership? Would I have access to any additional files through Patreon that are not available through MyMiniFactory? If I switch memberships, will my MyMiniFactory account automatically be upgraded or linked, or would I need to repurchase any files? Also, where can I find the mini ball python files for purchase? Thank you! .

I don't want to be a negative Nancy, but as a former ball python breeder, ball pythons have a very distinct eye stripe and "alien head" patterns (usually) and these updated files miss the mark for me

matmire_makes

I appreciate your opinion. Absolute realism isn’t really my primary goal. All of my designs are my own stylized interpretation of these animals. My goal is always to balance fun character personality with a semi-realistic design style. It was important for me to use the coloring in a way that flows with and emphasizes the features that help push that character personality. In this case, the brows and eye contrast. In reality the eye stipe pattern line seems like its purpose is to camouflage the eyes, which to me sacrifices the “character” side of that stylistic balance. (This is very similar to the way I hand painted it in my original release gallery examples) That said, you’re welcome to make your own paint job if you want a more realistic pattern.

I haven't been able to figure out how to re-download the file on Cults3d. Has anyone else been able to do this on this platform?

matmire_makes

On Cults, click the little round account profile icon in the upper right corner, then click “Downloads”. That’s your purchase history page. Find the order with the file, and there should be a download button next to it.

Tom Lato

Thank you, I figured it out. It was part of a bulk order and there was one download button for all my purchases. Thanks for the quick reply!

Millyissa

These look great! I redownloaded my ball python. Do you plan on re-releasing the "bonus" snake keychains in color?

Manuel

Now maybe the snake keychains??

I have been a member since 2023 and I went to myminifactory and tried searching through the search bar and found none of these. Can you help with that?

matmire_makes

Hi! These files were released in 2022. If you have them, you likely would have purchased them. In your MMF library search your "All" or "Purchases" section since they wouldn't be in the "Shared With Me" section. There's also a chance you could have bought them on Cults3D. You can check your cults downloads page here: https://cults3d.com/en/orders

Sewfor54

Thanks for responding Mat. I will take look and see what I can find.

Suki

I would love to see updated colored versions of the ghost crab

matmire_makes

There is one. 🙂 I announced the update in the MMMini Crab post.

Suki

Awesome ❣️

matmire_makes

Hmm, there should be. Is it v03? There is a folder in the download called "Multicolor Files". They are in there.

Suki

I found it . Sorry. This cloud mess makes copies of things I don't ask for.

hognose?
