Babar the Elephant

thingiverse

Babar is a fictional character who first appeared in 1931 in the French children's book Histoire de Babar by Jean de Brunhoff. After a hunter kills Babars mother he escapes the jungle and experiences a series of adventures in the big city. When Babar returns to the jungle, because of his travels and contact with civilization, he is appointed king of the elephant kingdom. Two parts of the model have built-in supports and therefore no other supports are required. Those two parts are also included without supports for those makers who prefer to use supports via their slicer. If you have the proper filament colors, no painting is needed. The assembled model is 230mm tall. *****Please note that if you do a full download of this model from Thingiverse, the STL files are correct but Thingiverse is making a mess of the images and including some extraneous images from someone else's project. If you need the images for this project, use the ones from the main page and download those individually. (click on one thumbnail, even if it is just the two gear placeholder, then click the upper right X, then click on view original) ****** Enjoy! Note: the built-in supports remove very cleanly, however I recommend removing them with piers instead of a knife.
