St. Francis of Assisi (San Francisco) - Garden Statue - Version 1

prusaprinters

<p>There are lots of different statues of St. Francis of Assisi, but this is one of my favorites because of the bird in his hand <i>and</i> the bird on his shoulder. :)</p><p>See also <a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/120643-st-francis-of-assisi-san-francisco-garden-statue-v">Version 2</a>.</p><p>I created this model by scanning a cement statue from my mom's yard. She's had it for decades, so I have no idea where it originally came from.</p><p>I used Trnio for iOS (in ARKit mode) to create the rough model, then cleaned it up in Blender, exported it as an STL, and sliced it in PrusaSlicer.</p><p><i>No rafts or supports needed.</i></p><p>Makes a great little gift for folks who need every bit of help they can get to keep their plants alive. ;)</p><p>Notes:</p><ul><li>While this doesn't require any supports, if you scale it up to print a larger version, you will notice a bit of a “Shaggy” goatee, which I usually leave alone, or perhaps trim slightly.</li><li>The “Movie Theater Butter” (Overture “Gold” in PETG) is nice, but my favorite color and filament for printing this is Overture “Rock” in PETG.</li></ul>
