Tabletop plant: "Pumpkin Tree" (Alien Vegetation 50 / Halloween Plant)

thingiverse

Isolated Pumpkin Trees can be found in all sorts of climatic environments. Like the Fugu, the 'Pumpkin' is edible - if you know what you are doing. This is probably why its warm, orange skin has always allured lost and hungry wanderers. However, the blue buds growing on the tree's branches also attract all kinds of carnivorous predators... Well, that seems fair, since everyone gets their dinner in the end.There have also been rumors of "pumpkin tree" forests. And some alien civilizations are said to operate venom farms with these trees. I'm a little skeptical, though. I mean, how would anyone find the time to model all those STLs? ;-)There are two versions of this model:One version with and one without a hole on the bottom. (Which makes painting a lot easier as you can have a plant on a stick!)Like most of my other plants, this one should print just fine without support. (See images for details.)--If you print this one, feel free to post a make - I'd really like to see how it works out for you.Want to know what's next? Follow me on Twitter. :-)
