There are 4 STL versions available.  The “Velociraptor_Head” is the original design file.  The “Velociraptor_Head_w_Eye” has a cutout for various color replacement eyes.  The “Velociraptor_ Head_w_Eye_Flatbottom” has a flat bottom for ease of printing.  And, the “Velociraptor_Neckerchief_Slide” has an additional cut-out for a neckerchief woggle.  The “Velociraptor_Eye” fits all versions; just print multiple copies on the platter.

Printing

I used a 0.15mm layer height and put about 1mm of plastic on the outside surfaces as a shell for the heads.  Since my printer has a 0.5mm nozzle I used 2 vertical shells and 6 horizontal top and bottom layers.  The eyes were printed with a 0.25mm layer height.  I set a honeycomb fill pattern with a 15% honeycomb fill density.  Support is needed for the heads (especially the eye sockets) but not for the eyes.

Assembly

The eyes glue into the head with the flat-spot in.  Any acceptable glue may be used to hold them in place.

Since I printed with ABS, I used a couple drops of acetone for a glue the eyes in place since it dissolves ABS. 

Finishing

I employed an acetone vapor polish to smooth the surfaces and merge the eyes with the body.  The before and after photos illustrate the improvement.
