This is a stained-glass styled Redheaded Woodpecker print in TWO parts. The first part has white, blues and black of the foreground. The second part blanks out parts of the bird and provides the reds and yellows for the background.

Both parts have very thin base layers, so special care is needed to remove them from the print bed. It is probably best to cool them completely before trying.

Joining the two parts back-to-back using a sparing amount of adhesive, especially in the lighter parts. The adhesive will change the colors if it is not behind the darker parts. I just used some around the black parts and around the very edge to keep the glue from showing. If spread thin and uniformly, it should not show too much.

Being done in PETG, instead of PLA, improves the model's ability to withstand the sun's heat. If it can be assured that the model will not be subjected to full sun, PLA can be used, instead.

If substituting filaments, pick ones with the closest TD values. Use a transparent or a natural white for the base filament, if possible. Otherwise, pick a white with a TD > 15 to minimize the color change it will cause. A gray with a similar TD can be substituted for the Stone Blue.

Note that the 3mf file provided was created in Bambu Studio. If that causes a problem, the raw STL files are provided as well. Use the swap information below in that case to set up the prints.
