There are two version of this prop. As you may expect, the combined and non-combined props are different in the show. My slim version does not combine with the Thunder Staff. The thick version is designed to be combined. Both versions maintain the ability for the antlers to move. There is also a fully assembled version of the antlers, and a fully combined version with the staff for scaling. I decided to make full antlers based off the slim version.

Also, the overall design is based on the original concept art, and reference images of the prop.

Printing Instructions

One thing to be a little mindful of. I set the infill to 8% with the gyroid pattern. The reason is to make sure there's a good amount of support when screwing the parts together. You'll want to screw it tight enough to hold its configuration, without being so tight that it takes a lot of effort to move. Painting and post-processing may make that easier, depending of your process. Don't increase the infill too much if you're doing the combining version. Since all the weight ends up being out on the end of the staff. The combining version is designed to have 1mm thick foam on each of the long sides to hold to the staff. I attempted to account for after post processing. If the foam isn't thick enough then you may need to add an extra layer to either side.

Align the parts as you see fit. I've included pre-split versions of the bodies and antlers, as well as non-split versions if you want to break them up yourself. All of the split parts were designed to use the same size pins as well.
