- Function: Decorative figurine / Desktop buddy.
- Printability: Designed to stand securely on its own with a balanced center of gravity.
Print Settings Recommendations
To ensure the smoothest curves on the head and a clean finish on the outstretched paw, I recommend the following:
| Setting | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Layer Height | 0.12mm or 0.16mm (to minimize "stepping" on the rounded head) |
| Infill | 10% (Adaptive Cubic or Gyroid) |
| Walls | 2-3 Walls for a solid feel |
| Supports | Minimal Required. Tree supports are recommended only for the underside of the outstretched paw and the chin. |
| Material | White PLA (as shown) for a clean look, or Silky Brown for a realistic shine. |
Finishing & Customization Tips
- Easy Painting: Because the print is white, it serves as a perfect "blank canvas." Use acrylic paints to add a brown coat, a pink nose, or even a little heart in the palm of its hand.
- Smooth Surface: A light sanding on the top of the head will help blend the layer lines on the shallowest curves.
- Scaling: This model scales beautifully! Print it at 50% for a tiny "lucky charm" or 200% for a statement piece.
Included Files
- STL: Single-piece high-poly model.
- 3MF: Bambu Studio project file with optimized orientations and support blockers.
I'd love to see your makes! If you print this little guy, please share a photo in the comments—especially if you decide to give him a custom paint job!
