Darth Maul
This Darth Maul figure is easy to print, requiring no supports, MMU/AMS, or glue and is a blast to assemble! It functions the same as my other BIG BRICK models, which are all derived from my base model: Generic Figure.
Printing Instructions:
- STLs already in suggested printing orientation
- No supports needed
- I would always recommend using a brim if you're not certain about the bed adhesion of any of these parts. In particular, the hands and arms can cause issues if there is poor adhesion.

Assembly Instructions:
Each of my BIG BRICK models are built from the same base model and the majority of the assembly is the same for each of them. You can find detailed assembly instructions for my models on that base model's designer post here: Generic Figure. You can find all other instructions relating to this model specifically below. Enjoy!
Head: The head isn't too bad to put together, there are just a bunch of tiny pieces! Start by press fitting the skinny black parts and the eyes into the face as in the picture below. They insert the face into the head.
After that, insert the other red pieces into the top of the head, as well as the horns. I would remove the horns from the build plate and put them directly into the head so you don't get mixed up. Then place the top of the head on the bottom half.
Lightsaber: Simply screw the two blades into the handle! Some people have mentioned breaking the blade while doing this if the threads are tight - just be careful and go slow if you're concerned. You can also screw it in slightly then back it out, then screw it in and back it out, and repeat that until it's worked in all the way.
