I low-poly-ified my Realistic Pumpkin model to make these free versions to share with you here! I made a version with the stem cut off shorter for better printing. Enjoy, and Happy Halloween!

If you like the model, check out the original! You can even show your support with a purchase if you so please.

I recommend printing the shortened stem version (with flat bottom) for best chance of success!

Versions

I had to use more polygons for the longer stem to even have a shot at looking right in this form, but it crosses over into easily-poor-printing territory in low poly form. Thus the included, more-typical-looking, shorter stem version.

There are also whole/flat versions of each. But feel free to play with the Z position of the whole versions to print them with a smaller or larger base than the ones I included. I just find that the height I cut them at is ideal to me.

Photos

Other than the renders I included, the cover photo features the full size model (shortstem/flatbottom) at 0.12mm layer height. The other 2 photos above feature the same version printed at 50% scale (0.16mm layers). The 2nd of those photos shows it compared with the original (high poly) model, also at 50% scale (0.12mm layers I believe?).

Below are 2 prints I did at the same time of both flatbottom versions. Other than the full stem looking not-so-lowpoly and a bit droopy, they seemed to print just fine. Of course that's if you exclude the unexpected print issue where the layers separated at the stem.

I'll update with better photos if I print more, but I'm already swimming in non-lowpoly-pumpkins right now!

Edit 12/16/2023:
I printed this out in Bambu PLA Basic Orange at 0.16mm layers.
