Legend of Zelda Diorama

A diorama of Link standing on top of the mountain with elements from Breath of The Wild. 


I was tempted to use the 0.2 nozzle, however, due to the sheer number of plates required I wanted to do the entire project using a 0.4 nozzle and not add the hassle of swapping nozzles too. If you have the time though, the small elements would benefit greatly and you would get better precision. This is especially true of the Link figurine.
 

There is an optional profile with a base you can print for it (it will need to be enabled in the profile). The bottom has a Hilbert curve which adds a ton of time to the print, however gives excellent results for holographic plates. Virtually no layer lines whatsoever. There i also another plate in there with the green meadows oriented vertically, this will give a much better finish – but higher risk and I did not test it. Print at your own risk

Assembly:

Assemble the mountain and the two waterfalls. 

 

Bottom waterfall is first. 

 

The fit is very tight, so if you are having issues a simple dip into hot 80c  water will soften the plastic enough that it slots into place.

Insert the upper one. No glue needed.

Insert the lower lake and the right meadow. A flat surface is needed otherwise when you glue it, it will be a little uneven on the bottom (ask me how I know). Make sure you put a paper down so the glue does not damage your table.

 

 

Finish the assembly

 

The trees and bases are connected by filament. The holes may not fit, so treat them with a tip sander or blade. Please be careful!

 

Each rock has a slot. Use the photos as reference.

 

Attach the cloud. 

 

I also drew some lotus flowers and grass, feel free to omit them or add wherever you want and as many as you want.

 

 

 

Link is assembled, a drop of glue and glue the head on. You can rotate it, but once it is glued, thats it.

 

 

Glue him on top of the mountain.

 

 

Any issues with fit and assembly, let me know in the comments. Please include the printer used and nozzle used.
