Piccolo Bust

thingiverse

A Namekian who is a reincarnation of the evil King Piccolo (ピッコロ, Pikkoro), who later befriends Gohan, Goku's Son. I created this model in LightWave about 11 years ago, and used it to demonstrate the application of Non-photo Realistic Rendering outlines in Java3D:http://web.archive.org/web/20011223110454/http://www.j3d.org/tutorials/quick_fix/npr_line.html Instructions Print picolo.stl and stand.stl. I printed this at 0.15mm layer height and 0.4mm extrusion width. If you plan to print at a thicker layer height, I'd recommend scaling it up. The model is tilted to make it easier to print with out supports, which is why the stand is printed separately and I added a hole to be able to put it on the stand. I had trouble printing the stand as a cylinder (I was getting a lot of twisting and wobbling) so I made it into a rectangle instead, which also ended up twisting and wobbling but it fit. If you want to create your own the hole is about 5mm. == Update 2012.April.11 == I've added version 2 models (piccolo.v2.stl and stand.v2.stl). These have 3 important changes. 1) I attached the eyes to the head so that it is solid. 2) I removed the inside of the mouth. 3) I made the stand cylinder thicker, that should avoid the warping and wobbling. I have not printed these new models yet, so I don't know if there are any new or different issues, but I did Skein it and it looked better.
