Lambda School: Unit 2 Completion Statue

thingiverse

Congratulations Lambda Students! This is the Unit II completion statue, crafted from high-quality materials in Bronze, Gold, and Ruby tones. This stunning statue is a testament to your exceptional work ethic, unwavering dedication, and drive to push forward. The statue can be printed in up to 3 separate colors of your choice - allowing the Lambda Shield, Statue Base, and Plaque to shine as distinct elements. In my printed version, I opted for Translucent Red PLA for the Lambda Shield, with 5 walls and 30% concentric infill. This resulted in a fogged or frosted glass appearance, devoid of visible infill design. The base was printed with Sparkly Copper PETG filament, achieving a coloring reminiscent of polished bronze / polished copper. The plaque was printed in gold PLA. Each component boasts tight tolerances, ensuring a professional and finished looking statue - requiring no glue! A light filing of the male clip ends on the lambda shield IS REQUIRED, and will be completely hidden within the base once assembled. I believe this statue perfectly complements our experience with Lambda School thus far - we learned a foundation during Unit I, followed by "upgrades" and "components" to our skillset in Unit II. Out of this came the Unit II statue - a reminder of where we have been, with new flashy upgrades. Additionally, if you enjoy the component-oriented design for the Unit II completion award, I've included a Unit I plaque so that you may replace your previous Unit I with the new modular style. I hope my trophies are as fun and inspiring to everyone else as they are to me. The point of these designs is to provide a tangible reward to complement the intrinsic value of our accomplishments. There may be a day in the future when you feel overwhelmed, drowning, and out of your element - Look to these statues as your Job well done. I look forward to continuing my experience with you all, and wish you the best of luck throughout the remainder of our enrollment. See you back here again, for your Unit III Statue! *Actually it's plastic, but it's okay because you're reading the fine print.
