This was a fun print for the kiddos. The only thing that I don’t understand is the limited time download in the title. You should keep it on MakerWorld.

psychology trick. it make a "rush" to catch it if you know it's a "limited (time, discount, whatever)". like writing "few pieces left" on a sale... even if it's not real, even if you probably don't need it, you will rush to grab it. psychology trick, that's all.

I didn't plan on posting it on MW but I wanted it to be a free file for a short period of time before it moves to a paid platform exclusively. Which I have done with several models in the past

Replying to @sugarpaws3d :

Once shared "for free sample" i don't think it will be private anymore 😅 i mean... It's online now. It's a good thing for your patreon, if you keep it as it's now, so the "later" users will maybe find your patreon linked to this one and sub for other models (just my "2cents" opinion, of course)

very cool and fun print. The Original full size file worked well. for the main filament I used BL PLA gradient Ocean to Meadow. thanks for sharing these.

Much appreciated! Good to know they can scale that small, I haven't been able to test smaller than 70% yet

I made the full-sized pre-colored one at 75%. I used whatever matte PLA I had around, with matte PLA+ for the eyes, and printed a perfect bit of squiggly cuteness to hand off when visiting a child. Easy peasy. Thank you!

@sugarpaws3d

Cute! Mine were made with matte as well :D

Awesome result. As expected there is a lot of waste with this multi color print but the result is really cool. I used glow PLA for the dots and it worked out really well.

I hope she (or he) won't eat the butterflies I printed lately. The small version wil no doubt be a hit with the grandchildren, especially if they come with several of them at once (the caterpillar I mean 🤣)
