Old Man Ninja Turtle (tmnt) - action figure

prusaprinters

read this before printing: This is far from perfect. Even if you print all the parts perfectly, you’ll find that some are TIGHT fits and you will probably have to drill out a few of those filament hinge holes for your filament to slide in.  I’m working on a video guide for assembly and slicing tips.  my test model worked ok using all PLA, printed at “.20mm Quality” on a prusa mini. (parts were obnoxiously tight on my mk3s). Be aware that tight fitting PLA joints wear in and get loose very quickly. That’s just how PLA is. You need to mirror the arm and leg parts to create the right arm and legThe description:I had an idea to make an action figure based off the 90’s teenage mutant ninja turtles toys. However, I thought it would be funny to make it an older version, out of shape. I had fun sculpting it, but as you can see, there’s not a lot to work with. I took definition out of his arms, gave him a belly, gave him wrinkles. I also gave him bad posture. There’s not much else to do! I sculpted it up in Nomad on the ipad, which was fun. However when I went to give it joints like all the zbrush videos I found, the resolution needed quickly overloaded my ipad and Nomad crashed. Soooo, I dropped details, hand cut all the joints, then re-sculpted details back in. This results in lots of things like the filament holes not being perfect, and some joints not fitting together perfectly. too much back and forth revoxelizing, smoothing, and sculpting!
