Boost MeI've reinforced the keyring loop so it's durable enough for daily use, but small enough to fit perfectly in your hand. If you print one, please share a photo! A Boost is always appreciated and helps fund my prototyping. 🙏
The Brains of the Party: Dustin Henderson
"Code Red! I repeat, CODE RED!"
The party wouldn't be complete without the bard! This Dustin Henderson Mini Figure brings the heart (and brains) of the Hawkins crew to your 3D printer. Modeled in the adorable "Funko-style" aesthetic, this figure features Dustin in his Season 4 look, complete with his iconic "Thinking Cap" and holding his trusty walkie-talkie to stay in touch with Suzie (poo).
This "Normal" edition features a standard standing pose, making it the perfect desk buddy or shelf guardian to stand alongside your Demogorgon.
📻 Model Highlights:
- Iconic Details: faithfully captures the "Thinking Cap" geometry and his signature curly hair.
- Accessory Included: Modeled holding his radio equipment—vital for saving the world.
- Desk Ready: A stable, standing pose that needs no base.
- Clean Print: Optimized for FDM printing with distinct separation between the clothes and gear for easier painting.
🖨️ Printing Recommendations
To keep those curls looking sharp and the text on the hat readable (if painting), follow these tips:
- Nozzle: 0.4mm works well, but a 0.2mm nozzle is highly recommended to capture the fine details of the hat mesh and face.
- Layer Height: 0.08mm - 0.12mm. Low layer heights are crucial for the round "Funko" head shape.
- Infill: 15% Gyroid.
- Supports: Tree Supports (Auto) are essential.
- Key Areas: Support the brim of the hat and the hand holding the walkie-talkie.
- Material: White or Grey PLA (Matte preferred for painting).
🎨 Painting Guide: Season 4 Style
Get your brushes ready to replicate that retro look:
- The Hat: The star of the show! Paint the mesh back teal/light blue, the front white, and use a fine tip (or toothpick) for the orange/purple "Thinking Cap" logo.
- Hair: Dark brown and curly!
- Outfit: Layered look—usually a t-shirt (Hellfire or Camp Know Where) under a shirt or vest. Khaki pants and sneakers complete the look.
- Gear: Black or dark grey for the walkie-talkie.
