Aurora Bearealis - Filament Painting
AVAILABLE FOR COMMERCIAL RESALE WITH TIER 2 - V2 FRAME ONLY
Aurora Bearealis?At this time of year? At this time of day? In this part of the country? Localized entirely within your printer? This is an 8 color print of a floofy murder boi under the northern lights. This model will only be available to club members.
I have included two different 3MF files for Bambu Studio. One for people with AMS unit(s) and one for people without AMS/MMU units.
[1 AMS/MMU Unit] Assign colors 5,6,7,8 to slots 1,2,3,4 respectively. Then manually swap out colors 1+2 for 5+6 once 3 starts printing, then swap out colors 3+4 for 7+8 once 5 starts printing. If you are worried about missing swaps in the AMS you can remove spool 4 after it starts printing which will force a pause when it gets to that slot. You can then swap colors 1,23 for 5,6,7 respectively, feed color 4 back in and then when color 4 finishes swap it out for color 8.
[2 AMS/MMU Units] assign slots accordingly.
[NO AMS/MMU] - preset pauses, manual color changes.
If you do not have Bambu Studio I recommend using it or Orca 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. A lot of the settings are recommended by the Hueforge team.
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 0.64mm @ 0.16 layer height as that is the min depth/non blended portion of the black. 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. If you decide to resize this file DO NOT scale the Z dimension or it will fail to blend correctly. If you use different 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.
