Back Story
Got introduced to Pokémon when my two sons were watching them with their Uncle/Brother (Slash brother since they were nearly the same age). They were into it: collecting cards and Pokémon battles. Pokémon was a little too cute for me, but I watched with them. I like more action in my Anime - sword fighting, shooting, and explosions. What better character to represent Pokémon than Pikachu. Loved this image of Pikachu because of the brightness and contrast of it all. It is so CUTE!!! This is homage to those three. I will make more Pokémon later, but may take some time. I'm not doing it, just to do it. Trying to capture that one great picture. Definitely Charmander…Charmeleon…Charizard that their Uncle likes.
Update: Per requests I've standardized the first four Pokemon to be the same sizes, bookmark and portrait, so they may be more complimetary as a collection. It can be found at https://makerworld.com/en/models/1463451-pikachu-standardized-bookmark-and-portrait#profileId-1526274. The Pikachu bookmark is 47x150mm, 42x150mm originally, and portrait is 133x200mm, 169x200 originally. I also made the base a little thicker.
Bookmark - Pikachu
Print at 100% infill with a layer height of 0.08mm with a base layer of 0.16mm
The Model is 42x150mm in size.
Can be resized to accommodate your printer or preference by adjusting the X and Y axis the same percentage while leaving the Z axis at 100%. The best way to achieve this: With Uniform Scale checked, adjust the Y axis to the desired size (180max for A1 mini and 250max for P1/X1, this will ensure the X axis is the same proportion as the Y axis), uncheck the Uniform scale, adjust the Z axis back to 100%, slice plate, and print. Stringing may occur with HueForge, just use a lighter to whisk them away.
