Description
I was very sad to see no readily available 3D N64 logos to compliment the plethora of fancy GameCube logo models that you can find everywhere, so I figured I should remedy that. The only ones I could find were either reliant on clunky assembly or having an expensive multi-color filament printer, so this is my solution for that.
On the subject of the red and green angled faces: Probably the easiest thing to mess up is the way the angled faces on the sides of the N's are arranged. Here's a diagram to help (the diagram is correct unlike the photo):
An easy way to remember is that the green and blue N's both follow the same axis, and when you look at the logo with a blue N on the left, and a green N on the right, you should see a red stripe on the two angled N's that are facing you going from top left to bottom right. Then, once you have those red faces in place, put another red face on the opposite angled section, and then alternate those with green faces on either side.
…you know what, just follow the diagram.
This model does have a noticeable border, and so I may make a revised version that has seamless edges and perhaps a better assembly process that doesn't require glue.
Here are some other misc. printing/assembly notes:
There probably could be a significantly fewer number of parts included in this post, but I wanted to guaranteed that I was getting the right number of parts in the right orientation every time I printed it, so feel free to ignore the duplicate ones (like the yellow and red faces).
