Description
I present the mini version of the Articulated Hippo which is modelled after the Hippopotamus. A model with 5 flexible joints that prints in place without support. A version with and without a Keychain is available on the same plate in the print profile. Just choose the one you want to print. This model has relatively tight joints, so make sure that your filament is not over extruding.
The complex structure of the first layer requires good bed adhesion, so please clean your print bed before printing or consider using an adhesive.
The print file has coloured nostrils and eyes but I believe the model looks great in single colour as well. Eyes and nostrils can easily be painted with a bit of white and black acrylics.
Overall, this is an quick and easy print resulting in a super cute animal toy.
Please also have a look at the original "Articulated Hippo” which is a super nice print!
