Description

The leaves get an authentic look due to their different lay heights and changing colors while printing. Monochrome printing is possible, too.

There are four files with different layer heights in the file name: You can see the names of the heights in the file name in this image. 
(S: Schatten/Shadow, B: Blatt/Leaf, A: Adern/Veins)

Set the color change after slicing in your slicing program. 

The heights are 0.8 and 1.2 and 1.6.
I am changing my Filament at 1,0 and 1,4, printing with 0,2 layer heigh. 

I put in a hole with 5mm at the top for the suspension. I use a garden wire. 

If you want to change the size, change only the X and Y axis. The hole will be changed with resizing! If you use a special Fastening, check if the change is possible. 

Of course, the layer with the indication 08 also determines the color of the back of the sheet. If you want another color on the backside, you can change the first color on 0,4.

 

I realized depending on the filament color and combination, the respective heights can look different. Feel free to experiment with your colors and change-layer. I'm looking forward to your Makes in other color combinations! 

My prints are PETG in the Color Green (Transparent), White, Black. The lighter green is due to the pressure on the white layer, dark green on printing the same filament on black. 

 

The darker leaf is printed with the File “Monstera S12 B16 A08” S=black B=Green A: White. 
The lighter one with the File “Monstera S08 B16 A12” S=black B=Green A: White. 

 

In post-processing, I use my heat gun to deform the leaf authentically. I have described the procedure here: Deformable Roses for thorny stem with nice leaves von Perpetua | Kostenloses STL-Modell herunterladen | Printables.com

 

 

******* I print with an MK4 and manual switching. Of course, this makes it particularly exciting, because you watch the pressure much more when you know a change is imminent. Do you have an MMU or even a PrusaXL? I'm curious about your results.***
