Need a cheeky Valentines Day gift? How about a Hueforge Hybrid Valentines Pokemon Card?

This is completely print in place, so no gluing or painting required! Even an AMS isn't required, but it does make everything a lot easier! If you use the included 3MF file, then all the filament swaps have already been loaded in, as well as the different settings for different parts of the card! If you use the STL, then I suggest you follow the recommended print settings:

Recommendations I used Matte Red for the heart (final swap at 2.68mm) but you absolutely can use whatever colour you want for the heart. In the 3MF file, I allocated a Blue colour to the filament so that I could differentiate the Reds.

You can split the different print settings for different layer range (below) by using height range modifiers.

Print Instructions For the card base: Print at 100% infill with a layer height of 0.04mm with a base layer of 0.2mm

For the 3D love heart:

• Print at 0.16mm layer height
• Print at 18% infill, crosshatch,
• 2 walls
• 10 top layers (to avoid pillowing)
• 5 bottom layers

Filaments Used:

• PLA BambuLab Matte Charcoal Transmission Distance: 0.6
• PLA Phaser3D Purple Sparkle Transmission Distance: 2

• PLA Sunlu Lilac Transmission Distance: 6.6
• PLA Kingroon White Transmission Distance: 5.8
• PLA Siddament Yellow Transmission Distance: 5.5
• PLA BambuLab Matte Red Transmission Distance: 0.6 (for the HEART!)
