This was a failed 3D print of this character: https://www.deviantart.com/chillbat.....aces-983013594
I have printed her before and wanted to make a new model at 1.5x scale, but unfortunately the print started to have problems halfway up the legs and I had to halt it. Some of the supports meant to hold up the tail had collapsed and the tail was turning into spaghetti. People with experience in 3D printing will understand. I was able to salvage the legs and the head. The head was printed on the floor next to the body, so it was able to be totally printed before the print was halted. The good news is that I have some ideas for how to redo the print so that it won't fail again. The gold colored filament I was using is more brittle than other filaments of mine, so I will increase the thickness of the surfaces to make it stronger. I also discovered by accident how to stop a print and resume it later, so now I'm less worried about making large prints that take multiple days.
This is the largest scale model I have ever tried to print, and I am blown away at how detailed it is. The dog feet came out really good. I can't wait until I have a completed model
