Going Merry Chopper - Optimized + All Parts

A lot of work was done as it's fabulous but lacks instruction, has missing pieces and need optimisations for faster printing and enhancements:

- red and white sail optimization for 13 hours less printing time

- a boat plate to fill the rear hole

- a brand new figurehead with a cool drawing

- general printing optimizations

I also made an instructable.

# Main mast

new color process to optimize printing, including the mast and the lookout. Separate plates allow faster printing with fewer color changes.

Total print time for the main mast and lookout was about 4 hours and 40 minutes. It's now 3 hours.

# Figurehead

Comments were showing a beautiful face, as shown here

I'm offering a new printable face with this drawing. The old blank one is still available.

ATTENTION: I used a different profile in order to get a better look (0.12mm)

I changed the horns orientation for better printing and reduced the size of the connectors.

# Boat main pieces

Nothing was done. I thought of filling the holes but didn't do anything by now.

I put the front pediment in a separate plate for printing optimization. Avoiding color changes is a big deal.
 

# White decorations

I found some unused pieces I put on a separate plate. I mirrored the rear "T" decoration, organized them all, and named them.
 

I created the missing rear stair railing and slightly modified the front stair railing.

# Rigging Parts

The plate was sorted for easy use.

# The sails

The read and white sail was far too long to print. About 15 hours on my A1. I worked on colorization in order to print it in 2 hours and 15 minutes!

I had issues on the white sail, so I slightly changed its orientation for better printing. There were 327 color changes, with as many poops for the previous orientation and only 18 for the new one.

# The chopper logo

This item was too long to print too. About 21 hours and 30 minutes. I also worked on it to print it in 3 hours and 50 minutes.

# Edges

I put a colored version of the edges.

# Rear hole

I saw a hole above the rudder. I made a boat plate with "Going Merry" written on it.
