【Great Tit Parus major】 - Multi-part Hand-paintable Blank Model & AMS Multi-color

Nature gives you
Tree canopy, breeze, and a downpour on your shoulders
 

And a moment later creates
A body of balance, loyalty, and ceaseless vitality

The Great Tit is common in North China's cities, and the titmouse alluded to in the song is likely this species

In literature, the titmouse symbolizes every ordinary individual in the city—small in stature, light in body, easily overlooked, yet truly alive

Modeling, sculpting, segmenting, and print testing in Blender, referencing species wiki data and various real bird photographs, was a very interesting process

Considering FDM printing efficiency, surface quality, and ease of coloring, the model was reasonably segmented

AMS coloring profile 1 updated (referencing Great Tit Northeast Asian subspecies coloring)

Instructions:

1. Suggested part materials: The dead branch base, bird body, and eyes are separate parts, allowing for printing with different materials
   1. Dead Branch Base: PLA WOOD, wood color
   2. Bird Body: PLA Matte, white
   3. Eyes x2: PLA Silk or glossy, black
2. The default print profile for the bird body is printed vertically with the tail as the base. This method significantly reduces surface quality issues caused by layer lines and support marks for FDM printing. I added painted supports at the bottom to enhance print stability
3. Assembly suggestions:
   1. When modeling the segmented eyes, a larger gap was intentionally left at the connection point; glue the sides after coloring
   2. Please glue the bird body and base together after coloring is complete
4. If you don't mind material and print time, you can choose the AMS coloring version; the most cost-effective coloring solution is to separate large single-color parts, print them with the corresponding materials, and then brush-paint the details
5. You can refer to the images below for coloring; acrylic pens, acrylic paints, etc., are recommended, and spray painting can be used if conditions allow
