There will be two winners.

1st Prize - All Battles For Mars and Little Cities STL's.

You can post on any of these: Twitter (X), Instagram, Facebook and Tiktok.  The choice is yours.

If you want to use the paint tool in Prusa Slicer and or Bambu Studio you can.  MMU prints are allowed.  But to keep things fair, we'll only allow a maximum one MMU print winner.

Who are the Judges?

Myself, because it is my Kickstarter and @agepbiz, because he has an amazing eye for detail and an even better eye for spotting quality photography.

Now about the design.

If you like the Engager then please check out my Battles For Mars kickstarter.

The Engager is a medium sized lightweight tank that is able to even out the battlefield.  Its faster than many vehicles it's size.  And the RC Bomb quick release feature was specifically designed to take out the legs on a Guardian Supreme Defence Carrier.  When this vehicle is on the battlefield, do not under estimate it.

One of the parts on the Engager requires a colour change mid print.  This is easily done in Prusa Slicer and or Bambu Studio.  Simply, drag and drop the part into the slicing software and select the filaments you’d like as well as support settings etc.  And then slice the model.

Now drag down the right-hand slider to the height you would like the colour change to be carried out. For this circumstance 10.20. Right click on the cross and select change filament and select the filament you would like the colour changed too.

Reslice and export your Gcode accordingly.

You can see in the image below the colour change has been added successfully.

If you’d like to carry out colour changes in Prusa Slicer then please use the link below to see how this is done.

If anyone has any questions or queries, even if you might think it is a stupid question, seriously, just ask me.  Send me a DM through Prusa Printers and I will get back to you ASAP.  I want people to be able to print this.  So if anyone is having any problems, just reach out.  I'll be happy to help where I can.
