Foxy! Melanistic Fox model (single and multi material versions)

Update: 02/03/2023

I am now the proud owner of a Bambu Labs X1CC and am enjoying the AMS. I never printed my Foxy in multi colour at home and was horrified to find issues with this version of the model it which would affect a successful print. I am so sorry and I have uploaded new and corrected files with some small aesthetic changes (although not too much as folk like the original it seems). I know there are many beautiful MM prints out there of this model (and well done for those who managed it) but I sincerely apologise for putting out substandard work.

I have included pictures of the new model (colour scheme is Midnight Fox) and I have included an amf for Bambu folk. Please review before using to print.

All the new files are prefixed by “new_”. I've left the old ones in place just in case anyone wants them

A little while ago during a Twitter conversation, somebody posted a photograph of a beautiful melanistic fox and suggested it might be a good subject for a model. I spent some time working out how to do the basic sculpt (quite easy) and then a multi material version (eek!)

Melanistic is basically the opposite of albinism, so the a dark coloured pigment in the fox's skin dominates and the red fox ends up black, sometimes with a shimmery grey effect hence being called silver foxes.

The little fox in the picture I used for reference had an interesting red patch thing going on. The photographs (and I am sure you will find them) were taken by the very talented Sam Gaby: https://www.instagram.com/keen.feed/

Models provided are single and multi material. You can of course mix the colours up as much as you like. Why not have a blue or a purple fox?

Single extrusion foxes by me. Lilac fox unpainted printed in lilac silk filament. The painted fox was printed in resin on a People Phenom

Awesome multi material Foxy printed by the very talented Mr Filament Frenzy

Prints on FDM and resin - the nose area may need some support
