Donkey Kong 8 Bit with stand

thingiverse

I loved the 8-bit Donkey Kong by Misterdid and wanted to print one to proudly display at the top of my bookcase. I needed to add a sturdy stand. Step 1: I doubled the size of the original Donkey Kong Thing, scaling it up to make an impressive model. Step 2: I created a simple yet effective stand that would hold my giant Donkey Kong figure upright and secure. Step 3: I extended the bottom of Donkey Kong so that he would fit perfectly into his new stand, creating a seamless connection between the two. Step 4: I printed some nostalgic Donkey Kong level graphics to adorn my bookcase and add a touch of retro charm. *update* I made a rookie mistake by not making the holes in the stand large enough. Thankfully, I uploaded DK Stand v1.1, which fixed this issue. For fun, I've included the PNG file I used to cover the edges of my bookcase shelves, adding a finishing touch to my DIY project.
