The Invitation - Whispers of the Hood 01

🖤 Whispers of the Hood – No. 1: The Invitation

The journey begins with a glance over the shoulder.

This is The Invitation, the first figure in the Whispers of the Hood series. A cloaked woman steps barefoot across unseen ground; her body wrapped in a sculpted robe. One hand reaches back… not to flee, but to invite you. She turns mid-step, as if guiding you toward something hidden, something sacred. The hood shadows her gaze, but her intent is clear: follow her into the dark, elegant world where the whispers live.

If this first whisper stirs your curiosity…

Print profile included

• 150mm 2 walls, 0.16 layer, 5% infill
• Arachne wall generator for less supports

Key Printing Tips:

• Disable “Strength → Detect Thin Wall” → gives smoother, cleaner surfaces on detailed parts.
• Always check the slicing preview in Bambu Studio before starting the print.
• Support removal trick: Cut supports into small chunks first, then gently loosen → they usually pop off cleanly without damage.
• Some plates use lots of supports, if so → for reliable prints use these filament settings:
  • Filament Overrides
    • Z Hop When Retract: 0.6 mm
    • Z Hop Type: Spiral
    • Travel Distance Threshold: 1 mm
    • ✅ Enable Retract When Changing Layer
  • Also, disable these settings in Bambu Studio if Variable Layer height is used:
    • Supports
      • ❌ Disable Independent Support Layer Height
    • Others
      • ❌ Disable Reduce Infill Retraction
    • I’ve found that a 0.15 mm top Z distance works best when printing with variable layer height.
