Openlock / Openforge Skull Cave Dungeon Entrance

Last crawled date: 4 years, 3 months ago

This is a remix of SnekyPete's Basalt Terrain Skull Temple.
When I first saw what he'd made, I thought it would be fabulous as a dungeon entrance, so I had a play to see what I could do.
What I've done includes;
Rescaling it to 80%, so it fits on my Ender without worrying about whether the print head will hit the clips holding the buildplate on.
Created a passageway to the back
Added a step down to ground level at the back. I made a single large step rather than a flight of them, because that way it should hold a figure on a 25mm base.
Added an Openlock triplex connector at the back.
Made it a two-part item with Openlock connectors. It makes it easier to print (this way, the bottom half doesn't need supports), and by using the springy-type clips you can easily remove the skull in play to get at your miniatures.
I printed my test one at 0.2mm layer height, although you might get better detail on the horizontal surfaces at 0.16mm. The top will need supports under the skull and horns, the bottom can be printed without supports.
In the photo, the caves I've clipped on at the back are Devon Jones' OpenForge caves, https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3871687
