Mewtwo - Single Extruder no AMS Multicolour Pixel Art

This is a pixel art Mewtwo that can be printed without a multi-colour printer. Hope you enjoy! The colour-changing process is very easy once you try it, so don't be intimidated! Pictures and a video are included below the instructions to help out.

Instructions:

• In the slicer, set layer height to 0.2mm. The total number of layers should be 28 (each layer segment is 0.8mm total, made up of 4 layers x 0.2mm).
• I recommend using at least 4 top layers and 3 bottom layers.
• Set a pause at layers 5, 9, 17, and 25 for colour changes.
• I use orcaslicer, where you can right-click the layer slider on the right side of the screen to set a filament change. This will pause the print and allow you to manually swap filaments.
• Reslice the plate after setting the filament colour change. Set the slicer preview Colour Scheme to “Filament” to see a colour preview.
• When the printer pauses, switch the colours as desired. The intended design is to start with black, then swap to white at layer 5, then purple at layer 9, then grey at layer 17, then white again at layer 25. You can experiment with different colour schemes if desired.
• When exporting the G code file, I recommend including your colours in the file name to keep track of the order (eg. Pixel Art - Mewtwo-Blk-Wht-Ppl-Gry-Wht)
