Nefertiti Hack (Neues Museum Germany) Three Piece Model by Saf

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

Nefertiti
This is a cut version of the Nefertiti model from the Neues Museum in Germany.
It is presented in three pieces consisting of the shoulders, face, and crown. The face will print upside down to minimize support.
This strategy will also aid in failed prints so you only need to finish 1/3 of the sculpture at a time to achieve a successful print.
I believe the crown piece is the largest, so the largest size it can be scaled will give dimensions on the largest size you can print the other two pieces.
The largest side for the crown is approximately 10.11 inches or 256mm - this will fit on a stock Rostock Max and perhaps some other brands of 3D printers.
The seam along the neck is somewhat hidden under the chin and I attempted to match the seam on the crown with the border element along the forehead.
Enjoy!
