That's quite a hard pint! this was my second go after the first failed to stick to the bed.

I got a shock when I came back after he had printed, the jaws pop out at you from the build surface!

He has light green feet and underbelly (Faberdashery Village green) and the body is in Greenery Green
60mm/sec print speed with 0.5 nozzle and 0.3layers.

Thanks for the model!

how much would you charge to do 3d printing?

What machine did you print this one? Did you use supports?

I modified the original design to increase the angle of the head, but a few points in the neck are still greater than 45 degrees. This was printed on a MakerBot CNC with the standard build platform. There are a couple of points in the neck where the overhang was too great for the machine, but the print essentially self-corrected, resulting in a basically successful print with a couple loops hanging off the neck.
