Background

After completing my low-poly chicken model (https://www.printables.com/model/1422828-modern-low-poly-chicken), I decided to eventually make a low-poly model of a cow for my mother. Thus began my search for a cow model. Most models were shown standing, which would not be a good for 3D printing without supports, as such I kept searching.

I eventually found Pmoews's cow model which inspired the famous dual-color cow puzzle model (https://www.printables.com/model/774513-single-extruder-dual-color-dutch-cow). This model didn't require supports and was the perfect candidate to create the low-poly model. After generating the model, several tweaks were made to have a pleasant printing experience. As such, this model is easy to print and does not need supports!

Something fun about these models is that they can be painted however you want! Have a favorite cow with spots? Paint this cow to represent your favorite cow! There is no limit on what your cow can look like, as every cow is unique. Just simply paint the cow in your favorite slicer to create its unique look.

Printing and Tips

As a decoration, this model doesn't require any intense parameters. The cows pictured in the photos were printed with 2 walls and a 5% cubic infill. If you want a heavier model, there shouldn't be a problem with increasing the parameters. The models in the picture were printed at 100%.

Finally, if you want to sell this model, please contact me. I have worked hard on this model, so I would like to arrange something if selling is the plan. If you plan to give this model as a gift, feel free to do so without hesitation!

Thank you for your interest and Happy Printing!
