Pōpoki: the Good Luck Tiki cat (for Chris's birthday)

prusaprinters

<p>Today (16th July)is my friend Chris's birthday and as he loves Hawaii and cats, I had a theme for for his birthday model in mind already. Chris is a good pal and deserves birthday wishes</p><p>There are not many tiki cats and definitely not ones which embrace the lovely patterns and form which is part of the the Tiki culture - so I winged (or pawed) it. I hope nobody from Hawaii minds and takes it in the spirit of friendship and enjoys the model.</p><p>Pōpoki is Hawaiian for cat but perhaps your Tiki kitty will let you know their true name once you print them!<br><br>&nbsp;Two versions are provided:</p><p>1) a solid version sutiable for FDM printing and should you wish to hollow a version yourself for resin printing</p><p>2) a version hollowed and with drainholes that I used myself to print in resin</p><p>No supports needed for the resin print(at this scale) but they are likely needed for and FDM print around his muzzle</p>
