It’s a pretty fun print, because from a certain angle it looks like an ordinary Christmas ornament, but when you turn it around….it’s Toad!:)

We included an stl and a colored 3mf version too in the download.

  • Post-processing steps (if you don’t mind the layer lines being too dominant, you can skip the sanding part, and jump right to the primer coat and painting)

    • Sanding: Start with coarse sandpaper (120 grit) to smooth layer lines, then use finer grits (220) and lastly (400-600) for a more polished surface.

    • Filler Primer: Apply a filler primer coat to cover imperfections. Let it dry completely.

    • Wet Sanding: Use 400-600 grit sandpaper for wet sanding the primer, repeating as needed for smoothness.

    • Final Primer Coat: Apply a thin layer of regular primer to create an even base for painting.

    • Painting: Paint with your chosen color from the acrylic paint set (red, white, beige, black-grey etc.)

    • Finish: Seal with Rust-Oleum Matte Clear Coat for a subtle finish or Clear Gloss for a shiny effect.

(Allow each layer to dry fully before moving to the next for the best results.)

Version2: Translucient Gradient PLA

Filament: ZIRO Translucent PLA Filament

  • you can try different gradient shift techniques, if you print even more snowmen all at once, the gradient shift is more dominant, if you print less, the gradient shift is bigger & more subtle.
