Wumpus by DMCShep

Last crawled date: 3 years ago
Artistic License at it's finest! A text-based game named Hunt the Wumpus was ported to the TI-99, where graphics were added and a depiction of the Wumpus as a red monster was born. Somewhere back in college, back when RepRap Darwin was still the "latest" 3D printer (read: several years ago), I started designing a 3D version, destined to be 3D printed. Its mouth is more "swamp monster" than "cave dweller", but it still has plenty of foul demonic being to go around.
I've included a source Blender file where the progression of 2D pixelated art form to the current state can be roughly seen if you switch between layers. Insight into an artistic mind maybe, I don't know. I figured it would be useful for me if I ever wanted to go back and retweak from an earlier starting point, but I do not think that is particularly needed at this point. It has been a great design and I am happy calling this iteration "good". Next iteration... who knows.
Being a creature whose jaws exceed your field of vision should you step into its cavern, it is only fitting that it is printed at the absolute maximum size possible on every printer that it is printed on. Also red, definitely red (unknown if that's just blood of it's victims or natural coloring).
It is my own personal "boundary benchy", a testament of a printer's longevity on longer prints. An initiation of sorts. Any skipping issues or large print problems WILL cause an untimely end to this print, and I should warn you, maximizing the printable area has been known to take extremely long on bigger printers. My 10" cubic RigidBot threw in the towel 8 hours into its 24 hour-long endeavor with a variety of skipping and misalignment issues. Print it at its maximum size, if you dare. And watch where you step, it has a tendency to lose its toes mid-print. Mwua ha ha ha ha ha haaaaaaaa...
ahem anywho, I have since printed it successfully on my M3D Micro and my M3D Pro (pictured is the Micro's print, note the back-right toe missing from lack of a raft!). My ReliaBuild3D remains untested (pending more red PLA), however it will also be printed on my M3D ProMega when it arrives. A raft is most definitely recommended to help those pesky toes from wandering, and dissolvable supports is considered "cheating". Hunt the Wumpus used one arrow, one filament stays true to the spirit of the design. Non-dissolvable supports however is fair game, and works well for the teeth area in particular.
