This model is based on the entry 6cgr from the protein data bank (PDB), presented in this publication:
Dai, X., & Zhou, Z. H. (2018). Structure of the herpes simplex virus 1 capsid with associated tegument protein complexes. Science, 360(6384), eaao7298.
The model is designed for multi-extruder printers like Prusa XL. Different parts of the capsid are highlighted in different colors. It could also be printed in one color on a single-extruder printer.
The 3mf file contains a pre-cut model with two halves that can be printed seperately and glued together. Paint-on support keeps the top part of the half sphere stable.
