Castle!

This was more complicated then I would have thought. Other then making the brick texture, I first had some inverted areas resulting in a loose tower, and then getting it smaller was a bit of a hastle.

Prepare to clean this one with tweezers- it requires some time to get it all out. If you print it larger, this should be rather easy.

Please excuse the file-mess (daily projects tend to end up in chaos), there are basicly three designs:

Castle with small brick texture
Castle with bigger bricks
Castle with bigger bricks made a bit thinner so it is not so bulky as earring

Printing the regular ones with larger bricks at 0.75 works fine on the pp3dp UP (but is a bit of work to clean).

Even at the little scale the brick texture shows a little, I am sure after coloring it the enhanced contrast will make it recognizable.

Instructions

You will need: Angled tweezers, a smaller knife and some time.

I tried 3 times with various settings, but couldn't get this to print even vaguely well. :-(

Hi!

What printer, what settings? ;-)

My models tend to be on the minimum what even the pp3dp can do. These are hell of a job to clean, they need some tweaking (rounded overhangs, thicker tower connection)...
