A tool like Blender requires constant use for it to make sense.

I used Meshmixer for hollowing the model and slicing it in half to print. It's very good at that kind of thing, but afaik is no longer supported (and is a bit buggy).

Of course, my sleep deprived, zombie-like state is the perfect time to try to learn how to do something in #blender.

I'm trying to figure out how to take the typical perfect (i.e. not realistic) crystal shapes that you get out of #openscad or #meshmixer and adopt some of the qualities of real crystals without getting too crazy. I am not a modeller.

My signature #3Dprinted jackal (#Wepwawet, #Kemetic #God #AncientEgypt) got an upgrade this weekend! I re-designed the head from the ground up, designed a new decorative base that is printed in pieces and then assembled. Added glitter 🙂

The base comes completely apart into pieces (top/bottom and 4 sides) which I did so I could more easily have hollow cutouts on the side (easier to 3D print flat pieces with holes than upright ones).

Added a printed gold box inside the base during assembly for a bit of bling but it's difficult to see. I think it will be better if printed bigger (that's probably the next step, go big or go home).

Big thanks to #Sovol #SovolSV06 printer, and #PrusaSlicer 2.6 Alpha 3. Honorable mentions to #TinkerCad, #Fusion360, and #MeshMixer, because I suck at #3dmodeling and needed no fewer than 3 programs to get this done :blob_rave:

My alien dice tower available free to download on #Thingiverse and #Printables. It’s a complete remake because the original was too narrow in the throat for more than 1 die. Edited with #meshmixer and #blender.
