Ahoy there, me hearties!
This guy started out as a "quick" 3D sketch that I posted on Twitter. I immediately knew I needed to do something more with it, and this is the end result. Sculpting this one brought me a lot of joy, even though it took quite a while to finish :)
What's the rat's story?
I'm glad you asked! It started out as a conversation with my frind Vedran who asked where the guy's parrot was. I liked the idea, but in my sleep deprived state I figured what this guy really needed was a pet rat.
So he got a rat. They have been inseparable ever since.
It really doesn't need any supports?
I didn't need any when printing it, but your mileage may vary. I had a couple of areas with a litle bit of sagging, but it printed just fine. As usual if you are in doubt and know your printer doesn't do overhangs very well, add those supports and print away :)
What else should I know?
That The Shield is one of the best TV shows of all time, and I highly recommend it.
I printed this on my CR-10S using some basic PLA (from 3DNet, no affiliation), and the following settings:
Layer height: 0.12mm
Nozzle: 0.3mm
Perimeter: 0.9mm
Speed: 50mm/s (but S3D slows it down to 50% on the outer perimeter)
Top/bottom # layers: 6
Infill: 5% rectilinear
