Paint it Black

The design is an open paint can, tilted at a 15 degree angle with some black paint spilling out, There is a paint brush floating, suspended in mid air with paint dripping off the brush. Can, paint, and brush appear to frozen in time.

The paint can is a standard quart size, and with the model put together it stands slightly under 18inches. Pieces fit snugly together, so be sure your printer is calibrated. I am still in debate about keeping the paint can open as a storage container.

The paint can label was designed in Microsoft PowerPoint, printed out on basic paper then glued on the plastic can.

As this is my first full model designed in Fusion360, I am posting the virtual model on thingiverse.com so anyone who wants, could print it for free.

The 3D printing community has given me a lot and I am more than happy to contribute back.

Paint brush parts should be printed out with minimal infill (6%) to help maintain balance of the model.

The Paint splash should be printed out with heavy infill (45%) once again to help balance the model

When printing out the brush bristles part, I adjusted the flow rates up and down ( 95% to 110%) to accentuate the layer lines and create a brush effect.
