Description

!READ BEFORE PRINTING!

One of the sliced models is only part of it, I had problem uploading whole model in 100% scale on 4 plates for some reason. Please Download STL and set everything according to the settings:

 

Print with auto tree supports

0,16 mm

Black PLA

7% infill

3 walls

 

50% scale model is complete and sliced properly :)

 

So basicaly my friend wanted Lich king helmet. So I printed one for him which I found on thingiverse. It is splitted in few parts so you will have to glue it afterwards alltogether. I printed it twice - once scaled down to 50% approximately to have it all at once in one print. I wanted to see how it prints. Afterwards I printed with settings which are presented here, not scaled down, human head size!

I opted for a layer height of 0.16mm and used black PLA filament from Aurapol, which resulted in a remarkably smooth and successful print. The choice of PLA, a popular and user-friendly 3D printing material, allowed for an excellent balance between print quality and ease of use.

 

It was over a kilogram of filament so I bought 2,5 kg spool to have same colour everywhere.

 

The 0.16mm layer height provided a good compromise between speed and fine detail, making the printing process efficient while still delivering a high-quality outcome. This object turned out perfectly, with clean lines, sharp edges, and an overall aesthetically pleasing finish.

In summary, this 3D print proved to be hassle-free and visually appealing, thanks to the choice of materials and print settings. It's a testament to the versatility and capabilities of modern 3D printing technology, demonstrating that even intricate designs can be realized without the need for supports when the right combination of filament and layer height is selected.

 

Happy printing! 😊

Its difficult to describe the profile. At 50% scaling there are a lot of very very VERY thin walls. Some spikes broke up from the top. Better you use the 100% or maybe rescale it to 75%.

Well at 50% yes walls become much thinner! Why rate At 3

I love the model. However, the horns are asymmetrical in 1:2 model, one of which is barely attached, so be careful. It’s also difficult to remove supports from the top of its horns. Besides that, everything was great. Thanks for sharing!

Made a new "front horn" for it, by request of my son, which were very happy with the result. Doubles as a lamp when not used.

Looks awesome, I'll try printing it next week, gonna try and get some gray/metallic silver filament first, to make it nice and proper from the start :D Do you happen to have or know where I could find some the stl/3mf for armor pieces for part or the full "attire"?

it seems like there is something missing on the sides of the helmet... like something is supposed to slide between the front plate and the back?

print came out nicely. Only change that was required was cutting the side pieces from the helm so they would print properly and not in thin air.
