This complex color/low waste model uses 8 different colors (13 instances). AMS/MMU not needed. Manual filament swaps can easily be done with pauses. This model will only be available to club members.

I have included 3 different 3MF files for Bambu Studio. Please read all the instructions carefully.

For 1 AMS - I have added 13 filaments to the slicer (some duplicates, one for each swap) and set the slicer to print all 13 in order. This way you can assign them when printing based on the chart below and keep the profiles for each filament type. It will be a bunch of swaps either way, but this should keep it straight forward. So basically just treat it as if there are 13 different colors in order.

For 2 AMS units - just load and print. This is the ideal setup for this model.

For NO AMS - pauses already set (manual color changes).

Pro Tip: If you are using more colors than you have AMS units you can manually unload the last spool after the print starts. With 1 AMS when it gets to slot 4 in the print it will error and force a pause. You can then load the new colors (5-7) in AMS slots 1-3 then put color 4 back in and repeat this process by unloading color 4 when it is complete it will pause when it is time for color 8. In this case repeat again for color 12. This will probably be pretty handy for this model as there is a bunch of swaps in the 1 AMS profile and this will ensure you don't miss them.

If you do not have Bambu Studio/Orca I recommend using it to look through the settings and copying them to make a Hueforge profile template for yourself in your slicer of choice so that future prints will be quick.

If you have any questions about printing this hit me up.

AMS SLOT GUIDE: The model colors will go in and be assigned to the following slots depending how many AMS units you have.

MODEL COLOR -- [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13]

1 AMS - SLOT ---- [1] [2] [3] [4] [1] [2] [3] [4] [1] [2] [3] [4] [1]

2 AMS - SLOT ---- [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8]

3 AMS - SLOT ---- [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8]

Print at 100% infill with a layer height of 0.08mm with a base layer of 0.16mm. The profiles have a height modifier to print the first 0.48mm @ 0.16 layer height as that is the min depth/non blended portion of the base color. If you use a different slicer set all your color changes before doing the modifier as it changes the amount of layers. This shaves off approximately half an hour of print time. As with all Hueforges if you scale the model DO NOT change the Z dimension. If you substitute filaments results will vary. If you have Hueforge you can import the STL and see how different filaments will change the outcome before printing. If you have questions hit me up.

NOTE: The Savannah yellow is only used in the text so you should be able to swap this without affecting the rest of the painting.
