Printing
PLA / PLA+ / PETG / anything

Multicolour
Mr. Barrel is made with an idea of eventually printing it multicoloured (but with no possibility on my side to do it at the moment). So, here are the things I would do:
Coloured eyes (e.g. white and black for a realistic look or just contrast to the body
Coloured shoes
(Maybe) Different colours of the “pants” (up to the first “circle”, which can be a belt)
If you can make it work, please, share your makes, so I can envy you 😉
