As shown in the reference image Gothic Filigree Skull Lantern Lamp STL halloween october decor , the model features an aggressive spiked crown and a completely carved-out lattice shell. It functions perfectly as an LED tea light holder, desk lamp shade, or spooky tabletop decor piece for a haunted house.
Just drop a standard flameless LED tealight, an RGB puck, or a string of fairy lights into the hollow base, and watch the horror-themed glowing cutouts bring your room to life!
Print Settings & Tips
Printer Type: Highly optimized for both FDM and Resin (SLA) 3D printers.
Layer Height: 0.12mm to 0.16mm for FDM prints to cleanly capture the intricate hollow cutouts; 0.05mm for Resin.
Infill: 10% to 15% Lightning or Gyroid. Keep the main interior cavity completely hollow so the light source can cleanly project the shadow shapes without obstruction.
Supports: Organic/Tree supports are strongly recommended for the top spikes, eye sockets, and upper jaw overhangs. Be sure to block supports inside the central lighting core!
Materials: Matte black PLA, PETG, or dark grey resin creates the absolute best light-blocking contrast for the glowing internal lamp.
Lighting Fit: The base is perfectly scaled to fit standard 1.5-inch flameless electric tea lights or small LED pucks. Safety Warning: Only use LED lights. Do not use real open-flame candles with 3D printed plastics!
