Cloak Hood - Hexagons and dragon scales
This file is a more advanced undertaking. If using a 256mm x 256mm build plate, this file is printed in 9 pieces, assembled into 3 larger pieces (left side hood, right side hood, and center hood), before sewing onto a base fabric for finishing. I use UV curable resin (see PDF guide for how to instructions) to connect the smaller panels together before sewing them onto a lining fabric.
Like other prints - the first layer is printed, a pause command is inserted before layer 2 starts, and the print is resumed. The hexagons are .72 mm tall, printed with a .4mm nozzle and a .24mm layer height. The dragon scales have 0% infill.
There are two options for the middle section, continuing the hexagon pattern, or a remixed dragon scale pattern (Thank you @shoreydesigns!)
The additional shine was achieved by using a holographic build plate, and printing so the first layer is the top surface of the printed fabric. The second finish was achieved by using a concentric pattern in combination with a tri color filament on a textured pei plate.
Print time - 1d7h31m not including pauses, placing of fabric Weight - 312 grams for dragon scale version, 95 grams for hexagons only

Hello my Name is Daniela, I bought this file because I love your designs. But I have a problem with printing... Perhaps you can help me? When I print the hexagons on a holographic plate, it is shiny and nice, but I can see the print lines. It is not smooth enough for my opinion. I calibrated the filament and print with 35mm/s, but is there anything else I can try? Thanks in advance for your help
I'm so terribly sorry that I missed this message! One thing you could try is increasing the bottom layer thickness to .24mm. I've found this gives a little more squish. A hotter temperature might help as well. Send photos to kaizen3dprints@gmail.com and we can troubleshoot!
what filament are you using?
Do you have a preferred kind of filament for these?
This was printed with burnt titanium from flashforge. If it has glitter in it, im all about it 😅. I mainly use PLA but a TPU version could be amazing too!
