The Cubari Facaccimo (Valentine Box)

When I saw that the theme for the contest was Valentine's Day, I decided to get some inspiration from my favourite romcom, Kaguya-sama: Love Is War. For anyone who didn't read the manga, Cubari was technically a Valentine's day chocolate and cannonically part of the Valentine Arc, so its on theme. 

This is container that should be able to store a few items. For reference, one of the chocolate in the photos is Ferrero Rocher, you could probably fit 5-6 inside it. The cover photo has been edited, but I've only swapped the colour of the model, the shape is still the same.

The .3mf files are split into the main body and the eye. This model requires supports, though I've made the top of the inner cavity flat so supports aren't required in the interior. The model in the pictures are a earlier version where I accidentally left through holes for the toothpicks, so there was dangling PLA. I've updated the model to have the hole stop just before they break through the top. This should stop the strands of suspended PLA, please leave a comment if it doesn't work. 

The .f3d file contains the 5 bodies: Body, LeftLeg and RightLeg, EyeTop, and FuzzyBoundary. If you are planning to make alterations in the f3d file, be sure to merge the body and legs in either in Fusion360 or PrusaSlicer. Do not print the FuzzyBoundary, it is used to act as a body- shaped modifier for the fuzzy skin effect on the main body. 

This was printed on a Prusa Mini using slight modifications to the stock 0.2mm QUALITY settings. 

If I had to time to improve this, I would probably modify the body to add a more bumpy texture on the body. Maybe next time?

Credit to Mindfront from BlendSwap and his model. The hulk pose for his character was perfect for getting partially bent legs, espically since I didn't have time to learn Blender and MakeHuman.
