Gloomhaven Bush

thingiverse

This is a single hex bush obstacle for the board game Gloomhaven. I took the branches from Terrain4Print's Vegetation Pack A, arranged them in a bushy shape and then added a bunch of leaves to create the desired look. Printing this design is a real challenge due to its complex structure. To overcome this, I used Meshmixer tree supports, printed it upright, and exercised a lot of patience while removing the support material. When doing so, I employed snips to start taking off support material carefully separating the trees from the tips of the leaves before pulling the entire tree away. For those interested in learning more about how I achieved this, I wrote a blog post that includes some additional details on how to get it to print successfully: http://objectforge.blogspot.com/2018/07/new-thing-bushes-for-gloomhaven.html 7/18/18 Edit: As requested, I added an STL with Meshmixer supports. After experimenting with various orientations, this was the orientation/support that worked best for me and resulted in a successful print.
