Cute Cat Ghost remix - Hollow

prusaprinters

Description:I loved the cat ghost that ncsandor made, so remixed it with a hollow body that should be big enough for a tealight. I also created a channel on the side to fit the wires for other lights.Printing:I printed my example with Formfutura PLA and 100% as I wanted no light to come through and for it to survive being put into the Halloween decoration box. I wouldn't put a real tealight inside, but I did make it to put a battery version we had at 38mm x 16mm, scale up if you're unsure. I also printed with a brim as what touches the bed is small and I have had enough blobs to last a lifetime, however if you trust your bed, you might be able to get away without a brim.Happy Halloween!P.S. I did paint my example with just The Army Painter matt white primer.Updated 10/28/22 Experimental:User Mammanta's daughter had an interesting idea of being able to see the cat inside when the light is on. I have been experimenting with the idea. The first step I have taken is adding a nose and whiskers on the inside of the model. I did a test print and it was visible, sadly all I had on hand that would show light through was PETG so the detail was lost. Because of that I cannot say for 100% the the nose and whisker version will print as intended. Though I thought I would upload it for others to give it a try while I wait for some translucent PLA.
