Multi-Material Christmas Gnome

Vortek Multi-Material Christmas Gnome

🎨 Color / Material Zones (Physical Parts)
The model is split into independent, cleanly separated components for true multi-material printing:

🔴 Hat — separate part
🧴 Nose — separate part
🖐 Hands — separate part
⚪ Beard — separate part
🔵 Body — separate part
⚫ Boots (pair) — separate part

✔ NEW — Multi-Color Tree Version (4 Colors)

A new print profile has been added:
Christmas Gnome — Multi-Color Tree Version

This variation places the gnome next to a festive Christmas tree and is optimized for multi-color AMS printing:

🌲 Tree (Multi-Color)
🧝 Gnome (classic colors)

Designed specifically for A1 / A1 Mini / AMS / AMS Lite users, this version adds a warm holiday scene without increasing support usage or print complexity.

🖨️ Printing Configurations (Important)

This model is a multi-material contest entry and requires correct material assignment in the slicer.

✔ Version 1 — 4 or 5-Color Print Profile (included)

Optimized for printers with limited material slots (e.g. A1 Mini AMS Lite):

• Hat
• Body
• Beard + Nose + Hands (combined)
• Boots

Optional 5-color setup:

• Skin-tone parts separated (Nose + Hands)

✔ Version 2 — 5 or 6-Color Print Profile (included)

For advanced multi-material systems such as Vortek / H2C:

• Hat
• Body
• Beard
• Boots
• Nose
• Hands

➡ Both profiles fully meet the contest requirement of at least 4 colors/materials.
➡ The 6-material version demonstrates the full potential of Vortek / H2C.
