This charming 3D model features Sailor Moon (Usagi Tsukino) in an adorable chibi or cartoonish style, ready for the holidays. She is wearing a festive, non-standard uniform: a red and white Santa hat adorned with mistletoe, a sparkly green and white skirt, and a red bow tie with a gold star. The figure is posed holding a lit lantern in one hand and a blue wrapped gift box in the other. Designed as a single-piece statue or easily assembled kit, this model captures a joyous, open-mouth smile and the signature long blonde pigtails (odango). The model is optimized for high-detail resin printing to capture the subtle textures, especially the fur trim on the hat and boots, and the glitter-like effect on the skirt and boots. Perfect for seasonal decorating and anime collectors.
3D printing settingsSettings 3D Printing and Manufacturing InstructionsPrimary Manufacturing Method: Stereolithography (SLA) is strongly recommended due to the small, intricate details, smooth surfaces, and need for a high-quality finish on the face and hair.Material: Standard White or Grey Resin for the sharpest detail.Resolution/Layer Height: $0.02 - 0.05 \text{mm}$ is crucial for fine details (facial expression, hair strands, lantern, and textures).Infill: $100\%$ solid is common for small resin statues, but you can use Hollow with drainage holes to save resin and maintain strength.Supports: Essential light/medium auto supports are needed under the pigtails, the lantern handle, the chin, the skirt overhangs, and the gift box's bottom edge.Post-Processing: Curing, cleaning, and careful removal of supports. Extensive painting is required to achieve the full effect, including using metallic or pearlescent paints for the sparkly skirt and boots and fine detailing for the face. Consider a clear coat for a protective, glossy finish. For FDM printing, a larger scale (over 150%) and a $0.08 \text{mm}$ layer height would be necessary.
