***THIS FILE IS NO LONGER INCLUDED FREE WITH SUBSCRIPTION. Use the 50% OFF discount code if you want to purchase it.Hi Everyone!  Introducing my new Platypus design!   A true oddity of the natural world.  The more you learn about these funny fellas, the weirder they get.  My kind of critter.  It's fully print-in-place, and features a few mechanisms to allow the head to either move freely or pop into a slot that holds it in an upward looking pose.  Here's a quick demo video of how it works!

I hope you like it!Matt

Pictured Prints use the following filaments***(reference the numbered prints in last image of the gallery)1) Ziro Wood Grain body, DUDV2 Camouflage accents  2 & 3) iSANMATE PLA+ Rainbow4) iSANMATE Pink/Purple Matte body, with iSANMATE Blue/Purple Matte accents

Yay for an Aussie animal! Would love to see a blue tongue lizard next!

Richard Moore

This would make a great Mini! The Mini’s range seem to be a favourite suppose who knew cuteness would sell :p Make more cute animals please..🙏

Dustie Chase

BMallett

It’s so good!!! I printed mine in turquoise and it’s now Perry!!!

Aaron

Ok Matt, fantastic job! Now it only makes sense to do an armadillo! Also, how cute can you make a pill bug?? Anxiously waiting!!

JBMemporium

The way the platypus body curls reminds me of a pangolin or armadillo. Haven't seen either of those attempted yet.

Hannah Galloway

I would be so thrilled with an armadillo or pangolin 😍

Denis Kennedy

I have printed at 100% and 25% and the models are amazing. Thank you for portraying our Platypus as a serious subject and not a cartoon buffoon. Could you please consider the Australian Frill Necked Lizard and an Echidna as future projects.

S3D

If you don't mind me asking, was the model at 25% still articulating, because that's tiny, keychain size even.

Lucy

awesome!! *_*

aelunya

I'm curious about this as well. They printed at 50% perfectly.

Denis Kennedy

Yes. I was surprised as the usual limit for me with articulated models is 50%

Megan Jensen

I was thinking about this! I want to make Perry! LOL

Giamarie Saponaro

Someone above said they did 25% and works perfectly still!!

Denis Kennedy

Steve I'm sorry. I think in terms of time rather than linear scale. On the linear scale the two prints were 100% and 50%. I'll try the 25% linear asap. The 50% was so robust I hope the 25% might surprise.

Casey Phillips

im printing this beauty now been wanting this for a while thank you mat :)

瓘鈞 曾

Is it possible to make a sea otter?

Ducky Pool

I see how adorable you make all of your animals and I wonder if you could make a quokka any cuter than they already are.

Memmie

Just printed one and absolutely love it. Made one using rainbow filament and it fit so well.

Wade McIntyre

The platypus is awesome mate. I've been asked by some customers if there might be more Australian animals in the pipeline?

aelunya

are there any plans for this to be a mini?
