Sappho Buddha

thingiverse

I love the Pop Buddha and it's one of the first things I printed when I got my printer. I also loved that it was supplied with a headless Buddha, so as I found myself learning mesh editors, I wanted to make something interesting with the headless Buddha. While I've got a couple ideas, this is the first one that I've managed to successfully finish. I love the delicate beauty of the sculpture of Sappho, and just love the juxtaposition of her head with the big Buddha body. I made this with MeshMixer, and it should be a nice, clean, non-manifold model that prints well. I made a test print to see if she'd print without supports, and the tip of her nose was a little rough, but when I printed the entire thing at full scale, the results were just fine with no supports at all.
