Chibi Mazu

### Design Inspiration & Features

This Chibi Mazu figure combines traditional divine grace with modern cute aesthetics. The design process particularly strengthened the proportion of the head and facial expressions, ensuring clear facial features and a compassionate smile even after being scaled down.

• Remove Redundant Ornaments: To improve print success rate, we removed the suspended pearl tassels on both sides of the headdress to avoid excessive small supports damaging the surface.
• Simplified Structure: The base and seat structure have been optimized to ensure the surface remains flat after support removal.

### Printing Recommendations

This model has been tested and optimized multiple times on my own A1 mini :

• Recommended filament: PLA (Gold or Silk colors are recommended to show off its luxurious feel).
• Layer Height: Recommended 0.12mm - 0.16mm for optimal facial smoothness.
• Support Settings: It is recommended to enable 'Tree Support,' especially for the crown and cuff areas.
• Post-processing: The structural strength was considered during the model's design, and painting or coloring effects are excellent.

### Design Concept & Features

This Chibi Mazu figurine blends traditional divine elegance with modern "kawaii" aesthetics. The design focuses on enhanced facial proportions and expressions, ensuring clear features and a compassionate smile even at smaller scales.

• Print-Friendly Geometry: To maximize success rates, floating pearl tassels have been removed from the headpiece to eliminate fragile supports and prevent surface artifacts.
• Streamlined Structure: The throne and base have been optimized for stability, ensuring a smooth finish after support removal.

### Printing Recommendations

This model has been rigorously tested and optimized on A1 mini :

• Layer Height: 0.12mm - 0.16mm for the smoothest facial details.
• Supports: Enable "Tree Supports," especially for the crown and sleeve areas.
