Shark Graffiti - Filament Painting

AVAILABLE FOR COMMERCIAL RESALE WITH TIER 2 - V2 FRAME ONLY

 This complex color/low waste model uses 10 different colors (11 instances). AMS/MMU not needed. Manual filament swaps can easily be done with pauses. This model will only be available to club members.

I have included 2 different 3MF files for Bambu Studio. One for people with an AMS unit, and one for people with NO AMS with pauses already set (manual color changes). I used 2 AMS units to print this and assigned colors 9&10  into the AMS slots 2&3 (black i used twice so I didn't swap slot 1), and then just swapped them out when color 4 started printing. If you have 1  AMS you can assign the filaments based on the reference chart below. If you do not have Bambu Studio I recommend using it to look through the settings and copying them to make a Hueforge profile template for yourself in your slicer of choice so that future prints will be quick.  

Pro Tip: If you are using more colors than you have AMS units you can manually unload the last spool after the print starts. With 1 AMS when it gets to slot 4 in the print it will error and force a pause. You can then load the new colors (5-7) in AMS slots 1-3 then put color 4 back in and repeat this process by unloading color 4 when it is complete it will pause when it is time for color 8. With 2 AMS you can do the same above just with AMS slot 8. It will pause at 8 then you can load colors 9-12 into your AMS slots 1-4. You don't have to let it force pause if you make it back in time to swap. This is handy if you are worried about missing the timing of a spool swaps.

If you have any questions about printing this hit me up. 

AMS SLOT GUIDE: The model colors will go in and be assigned to the following slots depending how many AMS units you have.

MODEL COLOR - [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12]

1 AMS - SLOT ---- [1] [2] [3] [4] [1] [2] [3] [4] [1]   [2]   [3]  [4]

2 AMS - SLOT ---- [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [1]  [2]   [3]  [4]

3 AMS - SLOT ---- [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12]

Print at 100% infill with a layer height of 0.08mm with a base layer of 0.16mm. The profiles have a height modifier to print the first 0.64mm @ 0.16 layer height as that is the min depth/non blended portion of the base color. If you use a different slicer set all your color changes before doing the modifier as it changes the amount of layers. This shaves off approximately half an hour of print time.
