Sir Pigglesby (a most noble piggy bank)

myminifactory

Sir Pigglesby is a multi-part 3D printable piggy bank with a threaded stopper - he measures about 25cm long when fully assembled. The colors chosen and the painting of Sir Pigglesby are simply my recommendations, which can be changed as desired. All parts of Sir Pigglesby were printed on a Prusa i3. As is customary with my other fantasy models, Sir Pigglesby has a little backstory: "Sir Pigglesby is a brave knight who serves in the army of the Sun. He wears a magic belt given to him by a Moon princess as thanks for joining her quest to rescue her parents from an army of Trolls. The belt, bearing the crescent insignia of the Moon Kingdom, allows Sir Pigglesby to carry an infinite number of objects without being hindered by bulk or weight. Only the chosen wearer can release the objects, and as he is a noble, honest, and loyal pig, he is in great demand for transporting valuable items on the most treacherous missions." There's a real-life story behind Sir Pigglesby's creation. I wasn't available much in 2016 or 2017 from a free downloadable model perspective due to professional commitments (for part of 2016) and helping my Louisiana family recover from a devastating flood and a close family member's serious illness. Due to these personal commitments, I didn't take on any new commissions, but to keep my artistic skills sharp and maintain spirits, I designed this friendly and brave piggy. I envision him as a cheerful little fellow who would make anyone smile even on the worst days and protect those close to him no matter the danger. I'm giving you Sir Pigglesby - I hope you enjoy printing him just as much as I did designing him.
