My wife recently got a Jeep Willis, and now she's on the Ducks in the Jeep train…
So I thought I would make a few custom ducks for here. Here is another one. FrankenDuck. He's alive… Alive!!!!
Cut the top of the head off and added in a brain. Flattened the top of the head and added some hair. Added a protruding brow and made the eyes uneven. Cut scars in the body and on the neck, adding in staples and stitches. Hollowed out the top of the head and added staples to allow it to fit back on the head. Added forward facing arrow indicator in the top of the head to help with placing it back on.
I would suggest something a bit more heat resistant than PLA, as these guys sitting on the dash may bake a bit. I print this one in grey PETG since it will not be your standard duck color
The top of the head is printed separately to be able to be detached in case you want to see its brains. even after painting and applying 3 layers of automotive clear coat, the gaps for the staples is still open enough and gives a snug fit.
***EDIT : I have made multi-color print profiles for most of my ducks, if anyone is interested in testing and printing one, let me know. If you share the pictures of the final print, I can then post the multi-color print profiles. For now, I don't have the color range, or an AMS to test them.
