Oversized Pikachu Pokemon Card - Hueforge Hybrid Print
bycyanidesugarEver wanted an oversized Pikachu card with Pikachu popping out of the frame? Well now you can print one for yourself! This is another Hueforge hybrid print that uses filament painting methods and traditional 3D printing to create a combined pop-art effect piece. It's an easy 6 hour print, no supports needed!
This print uses 4 colours, with the Yellow repeated for Pikachu at the end. If you do not have an AMS, just insert pauses at the layer swaps and manually swap out the colours :)
It is large, at 177mm x 240mm in size. If you have to resize it to fit your printer bed, please only scale the X and Y dimensions, but do not alter the Z dimension, otherwise the layer swaps will be inaccurate.
If you are using the Bambu Studio, download the 3MF file and all settings will have been applied to this print, and you can just hit Print. If you do not want to use that, feel free to use the 3MF or STL, and apply your own print settings (though the Hueforge portion should follow the layer swap settings provided).
Print Instructions:
- The Hueforge portion of the print should be printed at 100% infill, at a 0.08mm layer height with 0.2mm base.
- The Pikachu (and it's tail) portion of the print (from 2.04mm to 210mm height) should be printed at 5% infill with 3 walls, and at 0.16mm layer height. You can use a layer height modifier to set these settings.

Post Processing:
You'll need to paint Pikachu's eyes and cheeks yourself, but that shouldn't take too much time!
The Pikachu model was obtained from here, by SAMD_Study and is a very cute model if you decide to print it as a standalone!
