This time, the protagonist is still Sarwtin, who spends another half his time wearing this set, saying that it is really shinning🥳.
This post is the sword: Crimson Dawn ; the armor is here: Immortal Phoenix
The full size version of the sword is 108cm long and compatible only with H2 series.
The 78% size version is 82cm long and compatible with A1 and above.
About Print Profile:
All pieces have passed the non-glued plate test, but if you use PETG to do a dual color print, it is better to at least glue the prime tower area to keep safe because the tower of the blade is very tall, PETG is more prone to hit the tower than PLA.
All profiles are pre-supported and can be printed directly.
No obvious difference in appearance between PLA and PETG, but I recommend PETG for better toughness.
Ignore all the “non-manifold edges” errors and do not repair them. To facilitate coloring in slicing software, the model is divided into numerous components. The overlapping surfaces between different components trigger this type of error message, though it has no adverse impact on slicing or printing, and this will add extra walls to enhance strength. However, if you repair them, these components will be merged, then it would be more difficult to coloring, and the internal structure would end up with significantly fewer walls, thereby reducing its strength.
The printing time and filaments consumption for the sword are shown in the diagram below (based on PLA).
About Assembly:
See attached assembly guide for installation sequence, no screw or glue needed.
About Color:
Color references are preset in profiles. It is recommended to print directly with metallic PETG, this sword is really hard to paint.
