UPDATE 2023-11-30

• added "wd_giraffe_thin.stl" model: decreased base colour to 1 mm
• added "wd_giraffe_ext.stl" model: extended height of coloured layers from 0.4 to 0.6 mm for easier colour change (printing layer height of 0.2mm) - this will also help to highlight upper colours when using more transparent filaments
• updated instructions and notes

This model has been designed to incorporate filament changes through your slicer settings. You'll be switching colours up to five times, with each change happening after 0.4mm of the base colour has been laid down.

We also included three size options for you: a 12mm, a 7mm and a 3mm height version. Opt for the shorter one if you're looking to conserve material, speed up your print time, or if you prefer a lighter final product.

Additionally, we added the wd_giraffe_ext.stl with 10mm for the base colour and 0.6 mm for each of the upper colours.

Happy printing!

NOTES & TIPS

• mounting: use your trusted wall gum adhesive or double-sided tape to mount this charming decoration on a wall
• thickness: use the "wd_giraffe.stl" or "wd_giraffe_ext.stl" and cut the model's base in your slicer to the desired height if you want one we didn't provide
• scaling: we recommend scaling these models along the X and Y only and keeping them along the Z axis at 100%. Also when scaling down you may lose some details if scaled down too much
• ironing: we like to use ironing only for the topmost surface
