Designed and printed this monarch butterfly tube rack for a friend, and super happy with how it came out! It holds 4 50 mL and 6 15 mL conicals.

The color patches in the wings are recessed at three different levels to allow for four 'colors' using three filaments: the "bright white" wing spots have three layers of white, while the 'whitish orange' wing spots just have one layer of white, allowing the orange color to bleed through.

This model has a couple removable supports to help the base print without the black front layer, so no generated supports are necessary.
