Description
For this V-Day, show your valentine that you care by giving them a vampire bat sucking the blood straight out of your metaphorical heart.
This lil' bat even comes with a dual extrusion option so that you can really separate the heart from the bat.
Printing
Successfully printed in under 6 hours at 0.3mm layer height in PLA. I used extra wide brims to give the small footprints of the wings and support columns a better chance at sticking.
Dual printed model is untested.
DOES require minimal support. I recommend the support structures shown in the image gallery.
File Options
Single model (Tested): WeeksB_Vampentine.STL
Dual model (Untested): WeeksB_Dual-Bat.STL & WeeksB_Dual-Heart.STL
Original MeshMixer file: WeeksB_Vampentine.MIX
P.S. Dual Colors with Single Extruder
Cacc pointed out that you can print the heart and bat separately and then "convince" the heart to slide into place with a heat gun and some force. -Thanks for the ingenuity!
