<p>Rendition of Nadja's Nightclub neon sign from What We Do In The Shadows Season 4. &nbsp;Love the show, and had to recreate this sign. &nbsp;Nadja's face is printed in glow in the dark filament for extra effect at night. &nbsp;Model was created by me using Inkscape to extract the curves from a picture of the sign.</p><p>Printed in three parts separated by filament swap commands in between each. &nbsp;Select all models in slicer and merge to align into their assembly position. &nbsp;You can create a gcode file for each and stich together manually into a single file, or print each seperately one after the other. &nbsp;Be careful with the setup for the line prints to avoid crashing the nozzle. See notes below.</p><p>First, print the base as normal. &nbsp;I used matte black with ironing on.</p><p>Second, swap filament to gloss red and print the Nadja's text and hair. Critical parameters: Z-offset 4mm to print on top of base. &nbsp;Z-hop 1mm to avoid crashing into lines during travel. Do not include purge line or bed adhesion skirt/brim.</p><p>Third, swap filament to white or glow in the dark and print the Nadja's face. Critical parameters same as the letters: Z-offset 4mm to print on top of base. &nbsp;Z-hop 1mm to avoid crashing into lines during travel. Do not include purge line or bed adhesion skirt/brim.</p><p>This was a challenging print, but I love the result. &nbsp;Printables would not let me upload my final merged gcode file due to invalid commands (?), sorry.</p><p>Enjoy!</p>
