My wife recently got a Jeep Willis, and now she's on the Ducks in the Jeep train…
So I thought I would make a few custom ducks for here. Here is one of the first ones to come out. The Pirate Duck. Arrrrrrr!
I printed this at 0.1 mm with 5% infill, 3 perimeters walls.
I also used organic support - build plate only
I would suggest something a bit more heat resistant than PLA, as these guys sitting on the dash may bake a bit.
<UPDATE 10/15/2024>
Reworked the model to be both a full print as well as printable in parts. the hat has also been tweaked a bit to have it print cleaner at the bottom. I have started to switch to SNUG support as with my settings and PETG, they come off quite easy, but I am having failures with organic supports getting knocked over.
The author remixed this model.
I like this duck as a base for my duck collection that will be going in my wife's Jeep. There are a few others out there that I liked, and some of my ducks are based off of some of those ideas.
I extended the neck a bit, as well as added some chubby cheeks to this cute little guy. I also removed the backpack.
