Starting my journey into 3D printing coming from a VFX background. I decided to work on something with a relatively simple shape, complex textures and some usefulness. After a rewatch of Star Wars Ep4 - The Lars homestead stood out. Mirrored geometry, layers of materials, and the use as a key bowl came to mind. It was a great first project as I learnt a tonne about modeling for real objects, Bambu studio, general printing techniques and painting.

PRINTING I print all prototypes on my Bambu P2S using generic grey, PLA, 0.4mm Nozzle Two prints - taking around 5 hours for the Base and 7 hours for the Lid

Default settings should work OK For my prototype I used 3 walls 15% infill - honeycomb

Base specific settings- auto tree supports (tiny)

Lid specific settings- auto tree supports with 2 walls, and a wide skirt of 50mm- it should rip off the underside of the dome when you remove the print.

I'd love to see the different results of texturing that you come up with, send them over when done! skip.now.production@gmail.com
