Flexi Whale Shark Mark-Ⅱ (Impression sur place)

---2024/10/07---
Extra service "Mini Whale Shark" released!!

It comes in three models: regular fidget toy and two keychain types with a hole to put a ring through. The cost of 4 sharks is equivalent to the cost of one “Flexi Whale Shark Mark-II” for multi-color printing, making it very productive.

[Update]
---2024/05/14---
The 3mf coloring of the Ship Stand has been changed.
---2024/12/07---
Added model with brim on the mouth, which can be easily removed after 3D printing. Please use this model if the mouth part is detached during 3D printing and the modeling does not go well.

This is an upgraded version of the flexi Whale Shark I published on Thingiverse. ts are structured to move flexibly, and the mouth is also structured to open and close. It can also keep its mouth closed when placed on flat floor.

Speckled mesh has been added, and multi-printing can now reproduce whale sharks more realistically.

This model includes the following digital content
01: STL - Whale Shark
02: 3mf (Bambu)- Whale Shark
03: STL - Stand
04: 3mf (Bambu)- Stand
05: 3mf (Prusa)- Whale Shark
06: 3mf (Prusa)- Stand
07: 3mf (Bambu)- Whale Shark ()
08: 3mf (Prusa)- Whale Shark ()

02, 04 and 07 are 3mf files for multi-color that are compatible with Bambu Studio, and 05, 06 and 08 are 3mf files for Prusa Slicer. If *After April 2024, Bambu and Prusa 3mf files will be compatible with each other, so there is no need to use them differently. (Only the set colors will be reflected unless imported into the corresponding slicer software.)
---2025/01/13---
*Creality and Anycubic printers will also be able to multi-print starting in 2024. 3mf compatibility is described below.

Creality Print:
It is compatible with both Bambu and Prusa. To use it, import the 3mf and then change the printer model back to the one you are using to enable multi-printing.
The color settings are retained in both Bambu and Prusa 3mf. There is no need to re-set the filament color.

Anycubic Slicer:
Only Prusa is compatible. To use it, import 3mf and then change the printer model back to the one you are using to enable multi-printing.
The color settings are not retained, so you will need to reconfigure the filament in ACE Pro by referring to the file for Prusa. (You can view the color settings for Prusa from Anycubic Slicer.)

Three types of 3mf files are available: "Low" is 3-color file with no pattern coloring, "Mid" is 3-color file with a pattern coloring, and "High" is 4-color file with the pattern and the underside of the body colored in different colors.
The "Mid" file has regular coloring and can be used to reproduce common whale shark, while the "High" file can be used to create more artistic whale shark.
However, in general, multi-printing produces amount of flushed filament(garbage) equal to the amount of filament needed for the model. For those who don't like this, I recommend the "Low" file. This file is colored to reduce the number of filament changes, although the coloring of the pattern is omitted, the pattern itself is represented by a mesh, so you can be assured of sufficient quality. Please multi-printing that suits you best.

Only stand needs to be assembled. Please refer to the second GIF and the 5th photo when assembling it. The stand also comes in two variations: regular one and simplified "Lite" version. The regular version is decorated with sunken ship and starfish, while the "Lite" version has simplified design for quick printing. Please choose whichever you prefer to use here as well.

Print in Place with no s. Please take pictures of your Flexi and share them with us!
